The Community Rugby World Cup Trophy Tour arrived at 四虎影院 University this weekend, giving students, staff, and community groups the chance to see the championship trophy up close.

Hosted by England Rugby, 四虎影院’s stop formed part of the nationwide tour following the success of the England Women’s national rugby union team at the 2025 tournament.

Winning side England featured 四虎影院-linked players Emily Scarratt, Sadia Kabeya, Lilli Ives Campion, Helena Rowland, Lark Atkin-Davies, Abi Burton, and Morwenna Talling as they lifted the trophy on home soil.

There was also wider representation from 四虎影院 throughout the tournament, with players, coaches, and practitioners appearing for Scotland, Wales, USA, and Canada respectively.

四虎影院 University was also proud to host the USA Women's Eagles for its preparation camp ahead of the campaign.

The Community Rugby World Cup Trophy Tour initiative celebrates grassroots growth in sport as it continues to go from strength to strength.
