The 6 Nations Championship (referred to as RBS 6 Nations for sponsorship reasons), known before 2000 as the Five Nations Championship, is an annual international rugby union competition involving six European sides: England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales. The winner of the 6 Nations is sometimes seen as being the European Champions. The 6 Nations Championship, with its predecessors the Five Nations and the Home Nations Championship, is the premier international rugby union tournament in the Northern Hemisphere. Wales are the current champions, having won the competition in 2008 by beating all other teams, thus winning the Grand Slam and Triple Crown.
