The Six Nations Championship is an international rugby union competition, and the oldest rugby championship in the world, dating back to 1882. Originally held between the four United Kingdom countries England, Scotland, Wales and current defending champions, Ireland, France joined in 1910 and Italy joined in 2000. Since then, France have won the most titles with 5, while Italy and Scotland have failed to win a title and remain eager for a Six Nations Championship trophy.
All programming on beIN SPORTS CONNECT is offered in HD and is available on PCs, mobile tablets and smart phones.
