As seven-time consecutive winners of the Women's Six Nations, England is once again the team to beat, with their sights set on a fifth successive Grand Slam.

A Grand Slam is achieved when a team emerges victorious against all opponents in a single campaign, a feat accomplished 25 times in the history of the Home/Five/Six Nations. The Triple Crown is awarded to a team that defeats the other three Home Nations - England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland - in the same tournament, with England having claimed this honor 24 times. The Wooden Spoon is a title no team wants, signifying a last-place finish in the standings, a fate that has befallen Wales in the previous two Women's Six Nations tournaments.
