The Molinex Trophy is awarded annually to the women's rugby union champions of U Sports, Canada's governing body for university sports.[1] The first women's rugby union championship was held in November 1998. The tournament features eight teams playing in a single-elimination format, which takes place over four days and features 11 games at a single, pre-determined host site.[2] The trophy was donated by Molinex Sports, the official Canadian distributor of Gilbert Rugby balls.[1] The 2020 championship tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
