England’s Men Team
Earlier this year, England took on Argentina and the USA in a thrilling trio of summer series matches, emerging victorious in all three encounters.

British Airways Spaces for All Fund
This year, together with England Rugby, British Airways launched a new sports fund, the British Airways Spaces for All Fund, which is dedicated to supporting grassroots rugby clubs over the next three years.
More than 30 clubs will benefit from the fund over the next three years, which will help local rugby clubs improve their social, event and outdoor facilities to welcome more people into rugby and create a welcoming environment that is more accessible and inclusive for women and girls.
Travel tips from England Rugby players
Travel Hack
I always make sure I have both my earbuds and headphones to hand for long flights as if the battery starts to die, I have the other pair to use whilst it is charging. Also a couple battery packs always come in handy, not just for yourself but another squad member is guaranteed to have forgotten one!

Travel essentials
I take my teddy everywhere with me. I’ve had it since I was born! It’s a bit tattered but I’ve had it since I was a baby.

Planning your trip
I love knowing where the best coffee shops and restaurants are in proximity to our hotel and training grounds. Being in a new area can be tough to know what's good so TikTok can be a great tool to help!

Rugby's great nations
Japan
Founded in 1926, The Cherry Blossoms emerged as a top tier team in the last 8-10 years. After a successful campaign in their 2019 home World Cup, the whole beautiful country will still be buzzing.
South Africa
A true rugby powerhouse with over 10 million fans, The Springboks left the last World Cup as worthy winners. They don’t have a home ground so play across the country. Want to see where?
Ireland
An illustrious rugby history includes 125 years in the home Nations (now Six Nations) championships. It all started at Dublin University, the love of sport and culture still remains.
Canada
The men’s team have competed in every World Cup since 1987 while the women went all the way to the 2014 final. Impressive, but there’s still room to grow and conquer more.
France
A mix of gallic flair and glorious failure keeps us fans captivated. Thought to have been introduced by wine merchants in 1872, you could say French rugby is soaked in history.
Australia
The Wallabies have won the World Cup twice, no mean feat for a sport with only 40,000 participants from a population of 24 million. It just shows there’s plenty of wonder down under.
