Warwickshire Rugby Football Union

The Warwickshire Rugby Football Union is a governing body for rugby union in part of The Midlands, England. The union is the constituent body of the Rugby Football Union for the city of Coventry and the county of Warwickshire. The current President is Mike Hemming, of the Old Leamingtonians club.

The Warwickshire RFU was created in 1914, after ceding from the now defunct Midland Counties Rugby Union.

There are currently 51 clubs affiliated with the union, with teams at both senior and junior level. The vast majority of the county's clubs compete in the Rugby Football Union Midland Division, with the exception of Coventry RFC (National League 1), Broadstreet RFC (National League 2 North) and the University Teams (who compete in the British Universities and Colleges Sport rugby competitions).

Warwickshire play in the County Championship. As of 2015, the representative side competes in the County Championship Shield, the competition for third-tier counties. However, in the past, the county competed at a much higher level, winning the Bill Beaumont Cup (as it is now known) 10 times, the fourth best record in the competition.
