The world’s 12 best national sides will battle it out over 30 matches this summer, all aiming to be crowned world champions on September 5th. New Zealand are the title holders, but England are ranked second, and after winning their first game against the Black Ferns for eight years in November '09, the host nation is full of ambition and expectation.

The latest news on the Women's Rugby World Cup 2010 is available from the IRB's WRWC site.

On August 20 the showpiece tournament kicks-off at the impressive new multi-million pound Surrey Sports Park in Guildford with all the pool games staged at that venue. Twickenham’s The Stoop, home of Guinness Premiership side Harlequins, will then provide a fitting finale to the tournament with the semi finals and final staged at the 14,000 capacity stadium.

Tickets for the tournament go on sale on March 22 exclusively through Ticketmaster. Visit www.ticketmaster.co.uk/WomensRugbyWorldCup to find out the latest information about ticketing for the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2010.
