Scotland v France

Pre-match Live updates

Match coming soon.

Since 2021, Edinburgh Rugby’s home ground, Hive Stadium, has been the home of Scotland Women, where support for the team has grown rapidly. In 2024, a sold-out crowd of 7,774 watched Scotland face England, setting a then-record attendance for the national team.

Now, as Scotland prepare to take on France on 9 May, supporters have another opportunity to be part of a historic chapter for the team, as they continue to inspire new audiences and grow the women’s game across the country.

Show your club colours

This Guinness Women’s Six Nations Round 4 fixture is officially designated as a Show Your Club Colours match, and fans are encouraged to come wearing the kit of their local teams. This initiative serves as a simple but visible way to celebrate the grassroots network and the many member clubs of the Scottish Rugby Union.

Scottish Rugby would like to see the stands filled with club jerseys, hats and all sorts of accessories from across the country to show the breadth of support for the community game. Supporters who bring the most energy and colour to the matchday are in with a chance of being featured on Scottish Rugby’s social media channels as the union looks to highlight the faces behind the local game.
