The '''2005–06 Powergen Anglo-Welsh Cup''' was the 35th annual [[rugby union]] cup competition in England, and the first since it incorporated the four Welsh regional sides to become the [[Anglo-Welsh Cup]]. Whereas the competition previously featured teams from the lower levels of the English rugby pyramid, this season it was contested by the 12 teams from the [[Premiership Rugby|English Premiership]] and the four Welsh regional sides from the [[United Rugby Championship|Celtic League]].

The competition began with a pool stage, in which each pool consisted of a Welsh region and three English sides, with each team playing the others in the group once. Pool matches were played in September, October and December 2005. The team that finished top of each pool advanced to the semi-finals. The semi-finals were played at the [[Millennium Stadium]] in Cardiff on 4 March 2006, and the final was played at [[Twickenham Stadium]] in London on 9 April.

[[Wasps RFC|London Wasps]] beat [[Leicester Tigers]] 22–17 in their semi-final, while [[Scarlets|Llanelli Scarlets]] beat [[Bath Rugby|Bath]] 27–26 in theirs; Wasps then beat the Scarlets 26–10 in the final.
