Six Nations 2024

The Six Nations Championship, formally known as the Guinness Six Nations, is an annual rugby union tournament between England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France and Italy. The competition was first played in 1883 under the name of the Home Nations Championship, and for almost 30 years it only featured teams from the UK. France joined in 1910 and Italy followed in 2000, forming the tournament as it is known today. The winner is determined by a points system based on wins, losses and draws. As of 2021 England and Wales share the record for most wins, at 39 each.
