The 2025 Super 12 competition was the 61st Brazilian domestic rugby union club competition organized by the Confederação Brasileira de Rugby (CBRu).

Format

The tournament consists of 12 teams. In the first phase, the teams are divided into 3 groups of 4 teams each, playing in a round-robin format, home and away. The top two teams from each group advance to the Final Hexagonal (2nd Phase), which consists of 6 teams in total, playing in a single round-robin format. The top two teams from each group then advance to the final, where they play a single match to decide who is the champion.

In the first phase, the last two teams from each group go to the Relegation Round, where they will play against the best first and second place teams from each of the 3 groups in the Second Division. The 12 teams play in 3 groups of 4 teams, and the two best teams from each group go to the Super 12 the following year. And the two worst teams from each group go to the Second Division the following year.

Regarding the points system, the scoring works as follows:

• 4 points to the winner of the match
• 2 points in case of a draw
• 1 point in case of defeat by a difference of 7 points or less
• 1 point for the team that scores 4 or more tries
• 0 points in case of defeat by more than 7 points.
