Elite rugby continues across the globe this week.

Just four teams remain at the Women's Rugby World Cup – with New Zealand v Canada and France v England set to decide who makes it to the final at Twickenham.

There's rugby from around the world in the men's game as well so fans shouldn't be short of action to get stuck into.

TNT Sports and discovery+ boast the lion's share of rugby union TV rights for the remainder of 2025 and beyond, with Premiership Rugby starting up again.

Sky Sports will show games from the British and Irish Lions tour and The Rugby Championship between Southern Hemisphere teams, while BBC and ITV will return to show the Six Nations as usual each year.

Premier Sports mop up plenty of the remaining action with United Rugby Championship, French Top 14, European Champions Cup and Challenge Cup matches across their channels and online.

RadioTimes.com brings you a round-up of live rugby union on TV today and coming up.
