The 2006-07 Guinness Premiership started in September 2006, and will finish with the final in May 2007. The Guinness Premiership is the top level of club rugby union in England. It was announced during the 2005-06 season that the 2006-07 competition would end two weeks early due to the 2007 Rugby World Cup in France, as England will be defending their title. Harlequins gained promotion to this season, whilst the Leeds Tykes were relegated. There are 12 teams in the league with the most recent winners being Sale Sharks.
From the start of this season, all half-time intervals are increased from the traditional 10 minutes to 15 minutes. The move has been explained as allowing clubs to capitalise on growing capacities and maximise refreshment income.[citation needed]
The opening games of the Season were played at Twickenham, in the London Double Header, [[2007.
