Rugby Europe have confirmed the fixtures for the 2024/25 Men’s Rugby Europe Trophy, the second highest tier of men’s XV competition in the Rugby Europe pyramid structure.
With promotion and relegation in place in the competition, Poland come down after two years in the Rugby Europe Men's Championship, with Luxembourg taking the step up at the other end of the spectrum after an impressive Conference season, finishing with a win over Moldova in the play-off.
Sweden will be hoping to go one better than their second place finish last season after losing just one game from their five.
Czechia showed glimpses of what they are capable of after their first season back in the Trophy after defeating Croatia, Lithuania and the now relegated Ukraine.
Lithuania will open the season against new-comers, Luxembourg, while Sweden and Czechia face-off in their first respective matches of the season at the end of October after contesting one of the best matches of last season, with Sweden coming out 48-37 after a thriller in Stockholm.
