What is Rugby Six Nations?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is an international rugby union tournament (15 refers to the number of players) that annually involves the men’s national teams of France, Wales, England, Ireland, Italy and Scotland. Initially, the competition, <\/strong>established in 1883as the Home Nations Championship, included only the British national teams excluding France and Italy. <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subsequently, with the inclusion of France, it was renamed Five Nations<\/strong>, assuming its current name in 2000<\/strong> when Italy also joined it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 2019 to 2024<\/strong>, the tournament is known as the Guinness Six Nations<\/strong> thanks to a deal with the Irish brewery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event goes beyond the sporting context, also representing a celebration of national identities and turning into a real collective celebration, characterized by sportsmanship and fairness among the fans in the cities that host the matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
