2008 KB Extraliga season

The 2008 KB Extraliga Competition was a Czech domestic rugby club competition, operated by the Česká Rugbyová Unie (ČSRU). It began on August 16, 2008 with a match between Tatra Smíchov and Petrovice at the Stadion ragby Císařka in Prague, and ended with the final on November of that year with Tatra Smíchov beating Říčany 17-9 played on Synot Tip Arena in Prague.

Praga and Přelouč were added, increasing the number of teams to 10 from the 8 of the previous season.

Unlike most other years, the league was played over the course of only one year.
