Six Nations Rugby is the official organising body of the annual men’s, women’s and U20s Six Nations Championships and the Autumn International Series. Working in partnership with its member unions and federations in England (RFU), France (FFR), Ireland (IRFU), Italy (FIR), Scotland (SRU) and Wales (WRU), Six Nations Rugby has responsibility for the commercialisation of centralised commercial rights, and the promotion and operation of the renowned Six Nations Championships and Autumn Nations Series. The Six Nations Championship is the oldest international rugby tournament in the world, dating back to its original incarnation in 1883 and expanding to its current format of six teams in 2000. It consists of three highly competitive annual tournaments across men’s, women’s and U20s rugby. The media rights and certain commercial rights of the Autumn Internationals have recently been centralised, with Six Nations Rugby now supporting the growth and development of these matches for all six unions. Six Nations Rugby is committed to continuing to make diversity, equity, and inclusion part of the organisation as a whole.
