The 2015–16 Top 14 competition was a French domestic rugby union club competition operated by the Ligue Nationale de Rugby (LNR).{{cite web |last1=Top 14 |first1=Calendre |title=TOP 14 - CALENDRIER DE LA SAISON 2015-2016 |url=https://www.lnr.fr/la-lnr/actualit%C3%A9s/top-14-calendrier-de-la-saison-2015-2016 |publisher=LNR |access-date=12 August 2020}} Two new teams from the 2014–15 Pro D2 season were promoted to Top 14 this year, Agen and Pau in place of the two relegated teams, Bayonne and Lyon. Home-and-away play began on 22 August 2015 and ended on 23 May 2016. This was followed by a playoff stage involving the top six teams, culminating in the final on 24 June 2016 at the Camp Nou in Barcelona, Spain. The final was moved from its traditional site of the Stade de France in Saint-Denis because of a scheduling conflict with UEFA Euro 2016.{{cite press release|url=http://www.lnr.fr/top-14-le-point-la-finale-2016-du-top-14-au-camp-nou-a-barcelone-04-11-2014-2-17-19269,19269.html|title=La Finale 2016 du TOP 14 au Camp Nou, à Barcelone ! |publisher=Ligue nationale de rugby |language=fr |date=4 November 2014 |access-date=5 November 2014}}

Competition format

The top six teams at the end of the regular season (after all the teams played one another twice, once at home, once away) enter a knockout stage to decide the Champions of France. This consists of three rounds: the teams finishing third to sixth in the table play quarter-finals (hosted by the third and fourth placed teams). The winners then face the top two teams in the semi-finals, with the winners meeting in the final, held this season at Camp Nou because the traditional site of Stade de France was not available in 2015–16 due to conflict with UEFA Euro 2016.

The LNR uses a slightly different bonus points system from that used in most other rugby competitions. It trialled a new system in 2007–08 explicitly designed to prevent a losing team from earning more than one bonus point in a match,{{cite web|url=http://www.planet-rugby.com/Story/0,18259,3559_2450951,00.html |title=French try out new bonus point system |publisher=Planet-Rugby.com |date=27 June 2007 |access-date=13 August 2007 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929120105/http://www.planet-rugby.com/Story/0%2C18259%2C3559_2450951%2C00.html |archive-date=29 September 2007 }} a system that also made it impossible for either team to earn a bonus point in a drawn match. LNR chose to continue with this system for subsequent seasons.{{cite web|url=http://www.lnr.fr/omm/upload/3%20-%20Titre%20II%20-%20Reglement%20sportif%202008%20-2009.pdf |title=Article 330, Section 3.2.

France's bonus point system operates as follows:

  • 4 points for a win.
  • 2 points for a draw.
  • 1 bonus point for winning while scoring at least 3 more tries than the opponent. This replaces the standard bonus point for scoring 4 tries regardless of the match result.
  • 1 bonus point for losing by 5 points (or fewer). The margin had been 7 points until being changed prior to the 2014–15 season.

Relegation

Normally, the teams that finish in 13th and 14th places in the table are relegated to Pro D2 at the end of the season. In certain circumstances, "financial reasons" may cause a higher placed team to be demoted instead. This last happened at the end of the 2009–10 season when 12th place Montauban were relegated thereby reprieving 13th place Bayonne.

Due to the terrorist attacks that took place in Paris on 13 November 2015, matches in the European Rugby Champions Cup and European Rugby Challenge Cup were postponed to a later date – later announced to take place on the weekend of 8–10 January 2016. This meant the fixtures that featured those teams in their respective domestic leagues, were postponed to a later date.{{cite web|url=http://www.epcrugby.com/europeanrugbychampionscup/news/31663.php|title=Postponed European matches rescheduled for second weekend of January 2016|date=27 November 2015|access-date=26 December 2015|work=EPCRugby.com|publisher=European Professional Club Rugby}} This meant that the entire Round 13 schedule was postponed: one match was moved to mid-February, and the remaining six matches were moved to mid-March.{{cite news|url=https://www.lequipe.fr/Rugby/Actualites/La-13e-journee-de-top-14-sera-decalee-pour-laisser-sa-place-a-la-coupe-d-europe/615020|title=La 13e journée de Top 14 décalée pour laisser sa place à la Coupe d'Europe|language=fr|date=9 December 2015|access-date=26 December 2015|work=L'Équipe|publisher=Éditions Philippe Amaury|trans-title=The 13th round of Top 14 shifted to make way for the European Cup}}
