The England v Scotland & ROW competition took place on Sunday 25 January 2026 under skies as unforgiving as the rivalry itself. A cold, grey and unyielding day set the stage – weather far more fitting for the named occasion than the Algarve’s usual sunshine. England emerged to reclaim the trophy, yet the story does not end there. The Scottish & ROW players will undoubtedly return next year, poised to challenge once again and add another chapter to this enduring contest.
