El Home Nations Championship de 1909 fue la vigésimo séptima edición del Home Nations Championship de rugby union . Se jugaron seis partidos entre el 16 de enero y el 20 de marzo. En él participaron Inglaterra , Irlanda , Escocia y Gales .
Aunque no formaba parte oficialmente del torneo hasta 1910, se organizaron partidos con la selección nacional de Francia que se jugaron durante el Campeonato. Durante el Campeonato de 1909, tres naciones locales se enfrentaron a Francia: Inglaterra, Gales e Irlanda. Como había hecho en el Campeonato de 1908, Gales venció a los tres oponentes de las naciones locales y a Francia, llevándose el título del Campeonato, la Triple Corona y el Grand Slam .
Los partidos de esta temporada se decidían por los puntos anotados. Un ensayo valía tres puntos, mientras que convertir un gol pateado desde el ensayo otorgaba dos puntos adicionales. Un drop goal valía cuatro puntos, mientras que un gol desde el punto de penalti y los goles de penalti valían tres puntos.
