Army vs Navy live stream 2024: How to watch Inter-Services rugby match online

An annual grudge match that's been played 96 times since 1920 and only interrupted by WW2 and the Covid pandemic, Army vs Navy is an institution and provides a rich source of pride and braggadocio for military personnel and families. Here's where to watch Army vs Navy live streams online – from anywhere.

The Navy secured their first victory over the Army since 2010 last year, thanks to tries from Setareki Raumakita, Dan Rutter and Jarrard Hayler, while Jordan Gott was named man of the match after sending six penalties and three conversions over the crossbar.

It was the first time they'd laid hands on the Babcock Trophy since 2016 but they haven't won back-to-back games against the Army in 28 years.

That's because the Army have for decades been the dominant force in the Inter-Services Competition, winning the title 19 times in the past 25 years. However, even with Germany international Cameron McDonald contributing a hat-trick of tries, they were unable to find their sea legs a year ago.

Fiji and Northampton Saints hooker Sam Matavesi, representing the Navy, will be the biggest star on show at Twickenham. You can follow our guide to get an Army vs Navy live stream from all over the world – including FREE stream options.
