Teams

[edit]

Seven French teams competed, as a French team,Toulouse, progressed further in theprevious year's tournament than any English or Italian team.

Four Welsh teams competed, as Italy forfeited its place in theItalo-Celtic playoff[2] and a Welsh team were the highest-placed team in theprevious year's Celtic league not to qualify otherwise.[3] Other nations had their usual number of participants: England six, Ireland three, Italy two and Scotland two.[4]

Seeding

[edit]

The seeding system for participating teams changed from previous editions of the Heineken Cup. Previously, each participating nation would seed one of their teams and these six teams would be drawn in different groups at the group stage.[5] Starting with the 2008–09 edition, the 24 competing teams were ranked based on past Heineken Cup and European Challenge Cup performance, with each group receiving one team from each quartile, or Tier.[6] The requirement to have only one team per country in each group however, still applied (with the exception of the inclusion of the seventh French team).[7]

The brackets show each team'sEuropean Rugby Club Ranking before the start of the 2008–09 season.
