The Asterias Cup (known for sponsorship reasons as the Barrett Bank Asterias Cup) is an annual men's international rugby union competition contested by Gapolania, Nuvania, Satavia, Satucin and Sublustria. It has been contested since 2003, originally between Nuvania, Satavia and Satucin - and since then, Sublustria joined in 2015 followed by Gapolania in 2019. The competition has been dominated by Nuvania and Satavia - who remain the only teams to win the competition outright, Nuvania holding 11 titles whilst Satavia hold ten. The competition is analogous to the much older Euclean Nations Championship that has been contested since 1899. The current champions are Satavia, who achieved a Grand Slam to win the 2023 Asterias Cup.
