Inside The Womens Rugby World Cup Championships

To date, there are five Womens Rugby World Cups

, three official championships, and two unofficial, due to the inspiration of all clubs and recognized university womens teams like Oxford. The first unofficial Womens Rugby World Cup was held in 1991 at Cardiff, Wales.

In the year 1994, a tournament followed at Edinburgh, in Scotland. Subsequently, the International Rugby Board, or IRB, set about establishing an official Womens Rugby World Cup for 1998, which was held in the Netherlands. The Womens Rugby World Cup was followed in 2002 in Spain, 2006 in Canada, and in 2010 in England.

Three nations have won the unofficial Womens Rugby World Cup trophy in the five competitions to date. In the year 1991, the United States beat England by a 19-6 scoreboard. In 1994, England took revenge by beating United States by 38-23 to get the cup.

On the official Womens Rugby World Cups, teams from Germany, Kazakhstan, Spain, Sweden, alongside with the more established rugby-playing nations of New Zealand and Australia turned up to compete for the trophy. Again, the United States proved to be a very strong team in womens rugby league, but in the long run was defeated by New Zealand.

In 2002, the womens rugby league players from Samoa entered the official Women's Rugby World Cup, making it the third southern hemisphere country to join the championships, which in surprising events, won matches against Ireland, Kazakhstan and Wales. However, it was again New Zealand which won the trophy by beating England by 19-9. The World Cup in 2006 made New Zealand claim for their third consecutive wins, by beating England by 25-17.

Even with the strong bid from Germany to be the host country of the next Womens Rugby World Cup, England won the right to be the host the championships in 2010, which will mean that the final match will take at one of the best rugby stadiums in the world, which is the Twickenham. Twelve womens rugby league teams will be invited to contest for the 2010 Womens Rugby World Cup trophy, subsequent to regional qualifying matches in the six IRB regions of 2009.
