The 2025 Women's Super Rugby Champions final is the inaugural match of the Super Rugby Champions Final. In November 2024, it was announced that the winners of both the Super Rugby Women's and Super Rugby Aupiki would play each other at the end of their respective seasons. The match will be contested between the nib Blues of New Zealand, and the NSW Waratahs of Australia.
The Blues defeated the NSW Waratahs to win the first-ever Super Rugby Women's Championship final in Auckland.
Background The Blues defeated Matatū in the 2025 Super Rugby Aupiki Grand Final at Eden Park, and the NSW Waratahs defeated the Queensland Reds in their final at North Sydney Oval.
This will be the first time that both teams will be facing each other officially. They have clashed before in a pre-season trial match which ended in a 36–all draw.
