The Vodafone Vanua Championship is Fiji Rugby’s second division national provincial competition, organised by the Fiji Rugby Union. It features a total of 16 Unions that compete in four pools for a home and away round robin competition before crossing over for the semi finals and finals series. These pools consist of the Central, Eastern, Western and Northern regions.


The top placed team in each conference contest the Semi Finals and Finals and the top two teams for the Vodafone Vanua Championship will be promoted to the Skipper Cup.


Additionally, the competition not only promotes competitive rugby but plays a crucial role in developing grassroots talent and encouraging provincial pride as well.


There are currently two separate divisions within the Vodafone Vanua Championship, Senior Men’s and Under 20. The Women’s division began in 2018 as a 10 a side competition and has experienced extensive growth in its two year history, with expansion into full XVs for 2020. However, as of 2022, Royal Tea has become the official sponsor for the the women’s second division provincial competition, currently called the Royal Tea Ranadi Cup.
