Malaysia Rugby League Premier is the top flight of rugby union league in Malaysia. In 2023 the league went entirely professional which attracted many overseas players.

Introduced in 2004, it was formerly known as MRU Super League, catered only to the top eight rugby union clubs in the country. The Malaysian Rugby Union (MRU) is the organizer of the league.

In 2017, the Super League and National Inter Club Championship (NICC) will be replaced with a more structured and more organized league system, an effort by Malaysia Rugby to be a professional sport in 2018. It also will attract more publicity and coverage by sponsors and local media to promote this sport to local citizens. The Super League will be renamed as Malaysia Rugby League Premier, and two new leagues were introduced to replace NICC, the Malaysia Rugby League Division 1 and Malaysia Rugby League Division 2.
