The 2013–14 Pro12 (also known as the RaboDirect Pro12 for sponsorship reasons) was the 13th season of the Pro 12 rugby union competition originally known as the Celtic League, the fourth with its current 12-team format, and the third with RaboDirect as title sponsor.
Leinster were the defending champions, having beaten Ulster in the 2013 playoff final.
The twelve competing teams were the four Irish teams, Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster; two Scottish teams, Edinburgh and Glasgow Warriors; four Welsh teams, Cardiff Blues, Newport Gwent Dragons, Ospreys and Scarlets; and two Italian teams, Benetton Treviso and Zebre.
New Zealand native Pat Lam replaces Eric Elwood as head coach of Connacht, following Elwood's decision to step down, while out-half Dan Parks takes on a coaching role with Connacht U18 Schools/Clubs while continuing to play with the senior team. Also, following changes between captains in recent seasons, the start of the season saw three players, Gavin Duffy, John Muldoon and Michael Swift, captain the side jointly. After a poor run of form culminating in a 43–10 defeat against Edinburgh, former Chiefs captain Craig Clarke was made team captain with the others continuing to "lead off the field".
