WATCH: Rugby Union Is Back

A new season of Rugby Union kicks off this weekend with the Rugby Championship and there's plenty of live action to look forward to.

The new Guinness PRO14 season marks a move to a conference format, while the TOP14 is set to remain as dramatic as ever in its current form.

The Greene King IPA Championship will see Bristol Rugby bid to bounce straight back up while European Champions and Challenge Cup Rugby will arrive in earnest in October.

This autumn we'll bring you England's Old Mututal Wealth Series, Ireland's Guinness Series and the return of the Barbarians.

Jaw dropping pace and footwork will arrive with the start of the HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series and there's even more rugby coming your way as we move into 2018.
