Standings
The final standings were affected by Alcobendas' use of Gavin van den Berg, a South African-born player whose passport was found to have falsified stamps on it. It emerged that van den Berg had played for Spain's national team despite not meeting the minimum residency requirements necessary to be eligible. Spain were duly disqualified from the rugby World Cup and Alcobendas were relegated for their part in the scandal.[3]

Playoffs
The playoffs were played on the 15 May 2022, with the exception of Alcobendas vs. Cisneros, which was postponed due to ongoing investigations in the Van den Berg affair.[4] The Spanish rugby federation finally disqualified Alcobendas on the 26 May 2022, meaning Cisneros earned a bye to the semifinals.Шаблон:8TeamBracket
Copa del Rey
The twelve teams were divided into four groups of three.[5] The winner of each group proceeded to the semifinals of the cup, which were one-legged ties.
The draw for the cup groups was restricted to ensure that teams are in the same group as well. This enabled specified league games to also count as cup group games.
Group 1: Barcelona, El Salvador, La Vila
Group 2: Ordizia, Les Abelles, Valladolid
Group 3: Santboiana, Lexus Alcobendas, Complutense Cisneros
Group 4: Gernika, Ciencias, Aparejadores
Although Alcobendas won a place in the final, they were eliminated from the competition as a result of the Van der Berg affair and were replaced in the final by Ciencias. Due to the prolonged investigation into Alcobendas, it was not possible to schedule the final before the off-season began, and the final was delayed until September 25 2022.[6] Шаблон:4TeamBracket
