Wanderers Bokkies and UNAM Reserves were crowned the new Namibia Rugby Union Women's Premier League and Reserve League champions after winning their respective title deciders at the Hage Geingob Stadium in Windhoek on Saturday, 10 October 2026.

The domestic rugby season reached its climax with both defending champion sides seeking to retain their titles.

In the Women's Premier League final, Wanderers Bokkies faced three-time defending champions UNAM Steenbokkies, who were chasing a fourth consecutive title.

After overcoming a challenging opening phase, Wanderers adjusted their tactical approach, utilizing accurate kicking and effective wide attacks to exploit gaps in the opposition defense. Their structured play and clinical execution proved decisive, securing a 45-26 victory and ending UNAM Steenbokkies' three-year title run.

The Reserve League final featured UNAM against defending champions FNB Kudus in a tightly contested match.

Kudus established an early advantage, taking a 24-18 lead into halftime. However, UNAM mounted a second-half response, with tries from center Raschano van Rooi and Paulus Hangula shifting match momentum.

UNAM's late persistence overturned the deficit, securing a 33-30 victory to claim the Reserve League title.

The final day brought contrasting outcomes for the university side, as the Steenbokkies relinquished their Women's Premier League title while the UNAM Reserves completed a second-half comeback to deny Kudus a successful title defense.
