Origins
Scotland played the very first international rugby match in history on 27 March 1871 against England, at Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, and won. Since 1879, the two nations have been competing for the Calcutta Cup, a trophy forged from the silver rupees of a dissolved rugby club in Calcutta, making it one of the oldest rivalries in sport. The thistle, the national emblem, adorns the jersey.

All nations are gathered on the VI Nations page.
Glory Days
Scotland has achieved three Grand Slams, in 1925, 1984, and 1990, the latter won in a memorable final against England at Murrayfield, the grand stadium in Edinburgh inaugurated in 1925. It won the last Five Nations Tournament in 1999. The Thistle XV currently plays an inspired offensive game, led by fly-half Finn Russell, who has passed through Racing 92.
Jerseys and Supporter Gear
The home jersey is navy blue, the historic colour of Scotland, and comes in two recent versions, while the away jersey features a contrasting shade. The flag, the white St Andrew's cross on a blue background, accompanies supporters at the stadium. Adult and child socks, child zip-up sweatshirts, jogging trousers, and a sports bag complete the outfit.
