England is a major nation in world rugby and participates in many international tournaments. Winner of the 2003 World Cup, finalist in 2019 and winner of the Six Nations Tournament 6 times, the Red Rose is currently ranked 3rd best team in the world.

Gilbert is proud to present its new match ball: the SIRIUS ball. Its name comes from SIRIUS, the 7th planet of the solar system, representing the 7th generation of Gilbert Match balls for the World Cup.

This balloon is made up of several technological innovations:

-G-XV rubber coating.

-Hypernova grip with star-shaped studs of varying heights to improve grip, help disperse water and provide optimum aerodynamics.

-Air-Loc bladder made of copolymer.

And still the Truflight valve.
