The 2023 Rugby League Ireland (RLI) season was a suite of rugby league competitions played on the island of Ireland administered by Rugby League Ireland. Unlike the previous year, there was no championship due to a shortage of teams in both divisions so there was only a men's Premiership along with, as last year, a Women's Premiership^[1]. The season saw the previous year's Championship winners the Banbridge Broncos win the Premiership for the first ever time.
