📝 About Six Nations 2026
Contested annually between England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland, and Wales, the Six Nations Championship traces its origins to the Home Nations Championship of 1883, making it the oldest international rugby tournament in the world. France joined in 1910 and Italy in 2000, expanding the competition to its current six-team round-robin format played across five weekends each February and March. A team that wins all five matches achieves the coveted Grand Slam, one of rugby's most difficult accomplishments. The championship generates intense national pride, with iconic venues like Twickenham, the Stade de France, and the Aviva Stadium creating electric atmospheres that make Six Nations weekends a highlight of the European sporting calendar.
