The inaugural 2015 Women's Rugby Super Series was an international women's rugby union competition contested by World Cup holders England, runners-up Canada, New Zealand and the United States.{{cite web|title=Women's Super Series set to kick off new era|url=http://www.worldrugby.org/news/78092|accessdate=6 July 2015|date=26 June 2015}}

The Super Series succeeded the Nations Cup, another international tournament organized jointly by the United States, England and Canada with rotating host locations. Guest teams from other nations also took part, most recently South Africa. Canada took home the last Nations Cup beating England and ending their 17-game winning streak. The format changed with a round-robin tournament now being played over three days in three locations, Calgary, Red Deer and Edmonton.{{cite web|last1=Young|first1=Wendy|title=Super Series Women's Int'l Rugby - USA, Canada, New Zealand & England|url=http://scrumhalfconnection.com/2015/06/22/super-series-womens-intl-rugby-usa-canada-new-zealand-england/|accessdate=6 July 2015|date=June 22, 2015}}

The tournament winners were New Zealand, with runners-up England, the United States third and finally Canada.
