NATIONS CHAMPIONSHIP 2026

About

The Nations Championship is a new international men’s rugby union competition scheduled to begin in 2026, designed to bring together the world’s leading national teams in a regular, structured tournament. It features twelve teams, including the Six Nations sides from the Northern Hemisphere, the SANZAAR nations from the Southern Hemisphere, and invited teams such as Japan and Fiji. The competition is played across the July and November international windows, with each team contesting six matches against opposition from the opposite hemisphere, both home and away. Results across these matches determine the standings, which then lead to a finals weekend where the top teams compete to decide the overall champion. The Nations Championship aims to create more meaningful Test matches, strengthen traditional rivalries, and increase the global appeal and consistency of international rugby outside major World Cup cycles.
