The 2011–12 Pro12 League (also known as the RaboDirect Pro12 for sponsorship reasons) was the 11th season of the rugby union competition originally known as the Celtic League, the second with its current 12-team format, and also the first with RaboDirect as title sponsor.[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/13693548.stm BBC News]{{cite web|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/rugbyunion/8564702/Dutch-bank-to-replace-Magners-as-sponsors-of-Celtic-League-from-next-season.html|title=Dutch bank to replace Magners as sponsors of Celtic League from next season|date=8 June 2011|work=Daily Telegraph|access-date=8 June 2011}}

The twelve teams competing were the four Irish provinces, Munster, Leinster, Connacht and Ulster; two Scottish regions, Edinburgh Rugby and Glasgow Warriors; four Welsh regions, Cardiff Blues, Newport Gwent Dragons, Ospreys and Scarlets; and two Italian clubs Aironi and Benetton Treviso.

The competition was won by Ospreys, who defeated Leinster in the final 31–30.{{cite news|url=http://www.espnscrum.com/rabodirect-pro12-2011-12/rugby/story/164683.html|title=Super Shane leads Ospreys to PRO12 glory|date=27 May 2012|work=ESPNscrum|publisher=ESPN Inc.|access-date=29 May 2012}}{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/18169721|title=RaboDirect Pro12 Final: Leinster 30-31 Ospreys|date=27 May 2012|work=BBC Sport|publisher=BBC|access-date=29 May 2012|first=Bruce|last=Pope}}{{cite news|url=http://www.independent.ie/sport/rugby/no-complaints-as-ospreys-time-run-to-perfection-3120075.html|title=No complaints as Ospreys time run to perfection|date=28 May 2012|work=Irish Independent|publisher=Independent News & Media|access-date=29 May 2012|author-link=Tony Ward (rugby union)|first=Tony|last=Ward}}
