Womens 6 Nations Tournament favorites broadcast schedule All the information

Less than a week after the end of the men’s Six Nations, the women’s tournament begins this weekend, with good chances for the French women.

This Saturday, March 23, the women’s Six Nations tournament begins. England, undefeated in the tournament since 2018, puts its title on the line against France, Scotland, Italy, Wales and Ireland. For the French selection, second in the last five editions, all hopes are high, despite the last minute withdrawals of Caroline Drouin and Rose Bernardou, absent for the entire tournament.

Special this year, the Six Nations tournament grants qualifying places for the next World Cup, which will take place in 2025 in England, as well as places for the WXV, a new international competition whose first edition took place at the last fall. By finishing 3rd in the last World Cup in 2021, France is already guaranteed to participate in the next World Cup, just like the Red Roses, beaten in the final by the New Zealanders.

This year, the French will have the advantage of hosting three times, against Ireland in the opening on Saturday March 23 at 3:15 p.m., then against Italy on April 14 and finally against England on April 27 for a match which will perhaps decide be the winner of the tournament. Consequently, France will travel to Scotland on March 30, and to Wales on April 21.

Broadcast of matches

All matches of the Women’s Six Nations tournament will be broadcast on France 2 channels.
