Wikipedia - Rugby League Pacific Championship
The Rugby League Pacific Championship is a rugby league tournament for national teams in Oceania. Its inaugural tournament was in 2019. Of the seven Oceanian teams, six compete across two divisions of three teams, while a rotating seventh goes on tour.
History
The tournament was created in 2019 with a two tiered format. The top tier (cup) consisted of Australia, New Zealand and Tonga and the second tier (shield) consisted of Fiji, Samoa and Papua New Guinea.
Australia won the Cup in the inaugural season while Fiji won the shield and got promoted for the 2020 competition.
For the 2020 edition, Cook Islands were scheduled to take Fiji's place in the shield. No team was relegated from the cup as Australia were going to go on a tour of England that year. The competition was scheduled to begin in June and conclude in November, but was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In 2023, International Rugby League announced the return of the tournament under the name Pacific Championships as part of a new seven years international calendar.
Pacific Championships Cup składa się z dwóch poziomów rozgrywek: Championship i Trophy. W Championship grają cztery najlepsze reprezentacje Oceanii: Australia, Nowa Zelandia, Tonga i Samoa. W Trophy grają pozostałe reprezentacje Oceanii, które są podzielone na dwie grupy: północną i południową.
W pierwszym turnieju Pacific Championships Cup w 2019 roku zwyciężyła reprezentacja Australii, która pokonała w finale reprezentację Nowej Zelandii. W 2021 roku turniej został odwołany z powodu pandemii COVID-19. Kolejny turniej Pacific Championships Cup odbędzie się w 2023 roku.
