The European Champions Cup and the Challenge Cup will return to a multi-pool format for 2023-24 season after consultation with the major leagues, European Professional Club Rugby said on Wednesday.
The 2021-22 and 2022-23 Champions Cup seasons had a two-pool tournament format that was initially adopted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with 12 teams in each pool where each team played two other teams twice - home and away. "We've been working hard with our Leagues and key stakeholders to ensure we have the right competition structures - for players and clubs - but also crucially for supporters," EPCR chairman Dominic McKay said in a statement.
