Four pools
- Like previous years, the 2015 Rugby World Cup groups featured four pools. Each pool contained five teams and utilised a single round-robin format. This meant that each team competed against their opponents once. Points were awarded during each of the pool-stage fixtures. Each nation received four points for a win and two for a draw.
