Ireland was one of the founding countries of the Six Nations when it began in the year 1883. So, we can rightly say they were a part of Six Nations’ early history. They did, however, have little success in the competition during the first few years; their first championship came in 1894.
Ireland’s rugby career took a turn for the better in the twenty-first century, as they won several Grand Slams and Six Nations titles, demonstrating their strength in the competition. The comeback is indicative of Ireland’s transformation from a struggling squad to a major player in the competition.
Talk of physicality and skill, the Irish squad is known for putting on a great show. In the 2024 Six Nations Championship, Ireland’s schedule includes three matches against Italy, Wales, and Scotland, and two away matches against France and England.
