Venues and match times have been confirmed for the 2016 Women’s Rugby Six Nations Tournament. Matches kick off February 6, 2016 with France taking on Italy at the home of the Stade de France, home of the 2014 Women’s Rugby World Cup . Other matches on the opening weekend include a tough Scotland squad who will try to edge a young England team and reigning Champions Ireland will face off against 5th place Wales.
Will Ireland be able to win back-to-back titles or will up and coming France and Italy rue the day? You also can’t forget the ever dominant England…
World Rugby name Women’s 6 Nations Referees
The championship opener between Scotland and England on Friday, 5 February will be refereed by Jess Beard of New Zealand with Canadian Sherry Trumbull taking charge of the last match, on Sunday, 20 March between Ireland and Scotland.
Five referees – Beard, Trumbull, Leah Berard of USA, Sara Cox of England and Australia’s Amy Perrett – have received two appointments each with a total of 10 referees involved.
As usual, the appointments for the 15 championship fixtures feature a blend of northern and southern hemisphere match officials. Rose Labrèche (Canada) and Marie Lematte (France) will make their Six Nations debuts in the 2016 championship.
