England National Rugby Union Team
The England rugby team is one of the sport's most successful sides. To date, they remain the only team from the northern hemisphere to ever capture the Rugby World Cup. They were also the first team to top the World Rugby Rankings and they're the most successful side in the history of the Six Nations, with 29 outright wins.
With the success of the England rugby team, it's no surprise that many famous faces and star players have represented the nation. Former England rugby squads have featured greats of the game. This includes the likes of Martin Johnson and Jason Leonard, who are both in the International Rugby Hall of Fame. Added to this, the Rugby World Cup's highest ever point scorer also played for the England national rugby union team. The legendary Jonny Wilkinson scored 277 points at the tournament between 1999 and 2011.
England at the Six Nations Championship
The England national rugby union team is the most successful side in the history of the Six Nations Championship. To date, they have won 29 outright titles, a feat that puts them just ahead of Wales. Additionally, England have also enjoyed a further 10 shared wins and have captured 13 Grand Slams.
As one of the four founding Home Nations teams, England have competed in every format of the tournament since its inception in the 1800s. In fact, England's Six Nations record includes inaugural victories in each of the Championships: England won the first Home Nations (1883), Five Nations (1910) and Six Nations (2000).
Over the years, England players have delivered some of the tournament's most impressive performances. For example, in 2001, Jonny Wilkinson set the record for the most individual points scored in a single Six Nations match - he scored 35 points against Italy. Meanwhile, Cyril Lowe's record dates back to 1914, when he scored eight tries in one competition.
England at the Rugby World Cup
The England rugby team has participated in every edition of the Rugby World Cup. In 2003, England secured their first Webb Ellis Cup with a win against Australia at Stadium Australia. This was England's second Rugby World Cup final - their first was in 1991 - and their second against Australia.
Since their 2003 victory, the England national rugby union team have reached the Rugby World Cup final a further two times. Sadly, they lost against the Springboks on both occasions (2007 and 2019). Additionally, England have also appeared in two bronze-final matches; the team secured fourth place in 1995 and finished third in 2023.
Despite many impressive performances, the England rugby team have also endured disappointing Rugby World Cup finishes. The team was eliminated in the quarter finals in 1987, 1999 and 2011, and they crashed out during the pool stage at the 2015 tournament, which they also hosted.
