Calcutta Cup

From TheBestLinks.com

The Calcutta Cup is a rotating trophy awarded to the winner of an annual rugby union match between the national teams of England and Scotland. Currently, the Calcutta Cup is contested in the annual match between the two nations in the Six Nations Championship.

The two countries' rugby governing bodies, the Rugby Football Union (England) and the Scottish Rugby Union, are now considering a plan to add a second Calcutta Cup fixture each year, outside of the Six Nations. The second fixture would be hosted by the away nation in the Six Nations fixture. Under that plan, one nation would have to win both matches to take the Cup off its current holder. Reaction to the plan is mixed.
