The Nationwide League is a domestic Kenyan rugby union competition.[1] Full members of the Kenya Rugby Union that do not participate in the top tier Kenya Cup are entitled to participate in the league.[2] It operates in a system of promotion and relegation with the Kenya Cup.[3][4] Matches are played on Saturday afternoons, usually before fixtures in the Kenya Cup.[5]
For the 2015-16 tournament, sixty four competing teams are divided into seven regional pools in a single round-robin league with the top teams proceeding to a knock-out competition.[6] Six teams will earn promotion to a newly formulated Kenya Cup 2 tournament[7]
After the round of fixtures played on 6 February 2016, eight teams were withdrawn for failure to honor matches[8]
