From Andy Payne:
Please see attached the application forms for the Nations Cup matches to be played at Twickenham in November 2026.
This is a new Biennial competition between the top teams in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Northern Hemisphere teams will play their away games in July and their home games in November, all Northern Hemisphere teams are scheduled to play all Southern Hemisphere teams across 6 matches, 3 home and 3 away.
Once all games are complete the teams will be ranked in a league based on their results over the 6 games. The competition culminates in a Finals weekend to be played at Twickenham over the weekend of 27th – 29th November. Please see use this link to get a detailed explanation https://nationschampionshiprugby.com/en
The following Finals games will be played as follows;
Friday 27th Nov – 6th place and 3rd place finals. 2 games one ticket with games kicking off at 16.40 and 20.10
Saturday 28th Nov – 5th place and 2nd place finals. 2 games one ticket with games kicking off at 13.10 and 16.40
Sunday 29th Nov – 4th place and 1st place finals. 2 games one ticket with games kicking off at 13.10 and 16.40.
I have attached 2 application forms, the first for the 3 England home games and the second for the finals days.
I expect there to be quite a demand for the England NZ game on the 21st Nov and for the finals game on 28th Nov. With this in mind I have already secured an allocation of tickets. Given that England are due to plat Australia on a Sunday and the other home game is against Japan, I will apply for these by request so that we are not left holding tickets. Similarly I have not yet requested tickets for the Friday or Sunday finals matches.
Many Thanks
