Ireland promises 'A Tournament Like No Other' in bid to host the 2023 Rugby World Cup
'Ireland 2023 will capture the imagination of the world. We promise to stage a Rugby World Cup full of Irish spirit and commercial success, that will help drive rugby's global momentum.' This is the promise on the official site for Ireland's 2023 Rugby World Cup Bid, which also has information on the Bid Team, Venues and the Bid itself.
Last week Irish former professional rugby union player Brian O'Driscoll and Joe Schmidt the New Zealand-born head coach of Ireland led an open-top bus, musicians and flag-bearers from the Aviva Stadium to World Rugby's HQ on Dublin's Pembroke Street as Ireland submitted its formal bid to host the 2023 World Cup. However, Ireland is facing stiff competition from France and South Africa who are also submitting bids for the right to host the tournament in six years time.
