Scotland Rugby

Founded all the way back in 1873, the Scottish Rugby Union is the second oldest rugby union in the world. Scotland played the first ever international match at Raeburn Place in Edinburgh, a game in which they beat England 1-0.

 

Now based at BT Murrayfield in Edinburgh, the Scottish national side annually compete in the Six Nations – a competition which they have won 15 times throughout it’s various incarnations. The most recent of these was back in 1999, the last ever Five Nations Championship.

 

Along with the Six Nations itself, Scotland also play for 4 other trophies during the Six Nations; the Triple Crown (awarded to Scotland, England, Ireland or Wales if they beat all other Home Nations); Calcutta Cup (vs England); Centenary Quaich (vs Ireland); and the Auld Alliance Trophy (vs France).

 

Scotland have taken part in every edition of the Rugby World Cup since it’s inception in 1987, with a best placed finish of fourth back in 1991. In the 2019 Rugby World Cup, the Scots will line up in Pool A, alongside Ireland, Japan, Russia and Samoa.
