Army, Navy and RAF set for Inter Services rugby league showdowns live with BFBS Sport

Who will take the men's crown and who can stop the dominant Army women's team?

Those are the two questions on everyone's lips as we head into the 2026 Inter Services rugby league tournaments, and you can find out the answers live with us.

BFBS Sport will be showing live coverage of the final two rounds in both the men's and women's tournaments on the BFBS Forces News YouTube channel and on BFBS TV (for serving personnel overseas only) with catch-up services available on both platforms.

The live action kicks off on 19 September in Stanningley, Leeds, with a double-header of RAF v Army action. 

The women's game will prove to be key fixture in the tournament as the RAF have been the Army's closest challengers over recent years and coverage begins at 11:45 BST.

Following that, the men's fixture takes place, with coverage beginning at 16:45 BST as the RAF look for revenge after losing twice to the Army in 2025.

The final round of fixtures takes place across two days in Heworth, with the women's Army v Navy clash starting at 19:45 BST on 25 September.

A day later, at 13:45 BST, the climax to the tournaments sees the Army host the Navy in a men's fixture. The Navy ran out 20-10 winners in this fixture in Portsmouth last year.

The Navy v RAF matches will be played on 11 September in Portsmouth and BFBS Sport have committed to bringing you highlights from both the men's and women's clashes on our platforms.
