A short history of the Six Nations

The Six Nations is the oldest international rugby tournament. It began in 1883 as the Home Nations Championship, played between England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

France joined in 1910 to make it the Five Nations, and Italy's arrival in 2000 gave the championship the name it has today.

The prizes within it

  • Grand Slam: beating all five other teams
  • Triple Crown: a home nation beating the other three
  • Calcutta Cup: England v Scotland, first played for in 1879
  • Wooden spoon: the unwanted prize for finishing last

When it's on

The championship runs every year from early February to mid-March. Each team plays the other five once, over five rounds, and home advantage swaps from one year to the next.

In 2027 England's matches run from Friday 5 February to Saturday 13 March.
