Since winning the first Six Nations championship in 1883, England has had a remarkable history in the game. They won their first Grand Slam in 1913, and they went on to have more prosperous years in the 1990s, winning Grand Slams.
No doubt, England have been serious competitors in the Six Nations. They continued to be a formidable force in the Twenty-First Century, winning the title several times and establishing themselves as serious competitors in the Six Nations. The number of Grand Slams they’ve won in the past is clear evidence of their ability. Will the giant England continue to make history? Well, the 2024 Six Nations will tell.
England will begin their campaign in the Guinness Six Nations tournament with an away match against Italy on February 2nd, 2024. After that, they will play four more matches to round up their participation in the tournament and their pursuit of the trophy.
England will have their hands full coming against these tough opponents but will have a tougher time against Ireland, the current champions with a 16th-time winning streak.
