It is the second Trophy competition under its new format, that will see Czech Republic, Moldova, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal and Switzerland compete for the title, and a place in the Championship-Trophy Promotion play-off.
This year's competition sees Czech Republic joining the Trophy after winning the Trophy-Conference 1 Promotion play-off against Malta. This year sees no relegated team from the Rugby Championship, after last year's winner Portugal lost the Championship-Trophy Promotion play-off against Belgium.
