Who has won the most Women's Six Nations titles?

The championship started as the Women's Home Nations in 1996, welcomed France into the Five Nations in 1999 and became the Women's Six Nations in 2002.

However, Italy did not join the championship until 2007 when they took the place of Spain.

England have dominated the championship:

England have won22 of the 29 tournaments, securing 20 Grand Slams and 26 Triple Crowns in the process.
The Red Roses have won the past eight tournaments, securing Grand Slams in seven of those years and only being denied the chance of an eighth by the changes to the 2021 season as a result of Covid.
England's last defeat was against France in 2018. They have won their past 39 Six Nations matches

France are the best of the rest:

France, winners of the first Six Nations in 2002, have won the title six times, with five Grand Slams.
Ireland won the championship in 2013 and 2015.
Scotland won the 1998 Home Nations championship.
Wales and Italy have never won the tournament.

How the Six Nations works

Teams earn four points for a win and two for a draw.

Bonus points are earned for scoring four or more tries in a match and for losing by seven points or fewer.

A team that completes a Grand Slam by beating all five other nations - as England did last year - is awarded three extra bonus points to guarantee them the title.
