WEEK 4
Saturday 5th November European Nations Cup Final,
Carcassonne, ko tbc
The
format and fixture schedule of the 2005 Rugby
League European Nations Cup has been confirmed.
The six nation tournament will involve France,
Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Russia and new entrant
Georgia competing in two groups of three.
It is being staged by the Rugby League European
Federation (RLEF) in partnership with the Rugby
League governing bodies of the nations hosting
fixtures in this year’s event.
In a new development for Rugby League, Georgia
will make their debut in the tournament with
England now having a revised autumn fixture
schedule.
Georgia’s entry follows a monitoring process
during which the performance of their national
team was assessed in fixtures against Serbia and
Holland.
The final of the tournament - which is now in its
third year - will take place in Carcasonne in
France on Saturday 5th November.
Commenting on the announcement, the Tournament
Director Graeme Thompson said: “We believe the
2005 European Nations Cup will be a competitive
and exciting tournament and will also assist with
the continued development of the sport in Europe.
“The tournament is being staged for the third
consecutive season and - in line with the RLEF’s
strategy - is continuing to develop year on
year”.
“By including Georgia for the first time, the
RLEF are demonstrating that opportunities exist
for other European Rugby League playing nations
and this will further help to stimulate and
sustain the sport across the continent”.
Thompson added: “By staging the final in France
we are also breaking new ground and providing an
opportunity for another nation to benefit from
hosting such a prestigious event”.
