Rugby World Cup 2035

RUGBY WORLD CUP

The third most important sporting event in the world.

A formal document dated 1969 and signed by the International Rugby Board, the highest body in the world of rugby, established that "the organization of competitions in which the participating teams were represented by individual federations would never be approved", that is, the organization of the World Cup was expressly prohibited. The Australian and New Zealand Federations presented two dossiers to the IRB on the opportunity to organize a world championship competition. The two reports had required approximately two years of work. On 1 December 1984 the two proposals were submitted to the International Rugby Board and, a few months later, in May 1985, the decisive vote was reached on the future organization of a Rugby World Cup to be played two years later: 22 May 1987 in New Zealand.

The history of the World Cup teaches that everything is possible, even in a short time, and that determination and the union of a country's professional and structural capabilities can make things happen that were almost unthinkable before. Italy has the potential, the necessary time and the duty to apply and obtain hosting the World Cup from all points of view and by complying with all the required requirements.

Not only the men's World Cup but also the women's World Cup, as we believe that women's rugby is not a sort of category, but an important and complete part of all the clubs and of the rugby movement itself.

The race to host the World Cup is emblematic of the choices that world rugby must face at a global level to further grow in players, fans and commercial turnover. In a context where the most important countries have already achieved technical, professional and financial maturity, many without a critical and structural mass like ours, a country with still untapped potential like Italy can no longer let it pass once again this occasion.

We have a Dream.

Being dreamers pushes us to take small steps for rugby itself but big steps for the entire Italian movement. We believe that it is possible to create the conditions that allow us to achieve the dream of having the World Cup in Italy.

We believe that with the World Cup and with the focus on the necessary requirements in our rugby system to achieve it rugby in Italy – 60 million inhabitants; 8th economy in the IMF list – can become much more than a cult sport rooted in the north of the country.

Any investment would have an incredible return as athletes and high-value repercussions on rugby as a commercial product at different levels and a significant economic impact on the economy. It's up to us to prepare a convincing plan.

The next editions of the Rugby World Cup:
2027 AUSTRALIA
2031 USA

The candidacy for 2035 is open and today is also the right time to address important issues such as the issue of stadiums. Considering that there will be the European Football Championships in 2032 and many stadiums will have to be adapted, it would be the right time to be able to design the new facilities taking into account the standards required by World Rugby.

RWC35.

RWC35 is a community open to all and which brings together all the stakeholders who want to contribute to creating the conditions to be able to bring the Rugby World Cup to Italy.

A community that cares about rugby and wants to create the best conditions for the development of the Italian rugby movement.

Frankly, abroad, the rugby community has struggled to understand the inability of Italian rugby to exploit the privileges granted to it by admission to the major European competitions, both at international and club level. We got huge levels of support but for a long time we really had almost nothing to show for it. The impasse between the amateur factions of our rugby administration and the demands of the new era has also manifested itself, with rare exceptions, in a chronic neglect of player development and support.

Project: “TWINNING”
an opportunity for SOUTHERN ITALY.

RWC doesn't just mean the single event but creates possibilities for the years both beforeand after.

A project that could start in a short time is the twinning of Italian cities with foreign national teams and the most representative clubs on a global level.

The cities, in addition to applying to host the World Cup matches, can apply to be the "HOUSE" of the national teams: a place of aggregation for the partners and fans of the national team.

Not mere temporary "structures" set up before the World Cup event but to be points of reference for the foreign federation in Italy, becoming a place in which to develop territorial collaborations, creating training centers, academies, active all year round.

The members of the RWC35 make themselves available to be "ambassadors" of the city: creating and maintaining international relations, especially for the cities of Southern Italy.

Bocconi Rugby Club

RWC35 was born from a group of more than 50 former Bocconi students who played rugby together in the university team, still united by the values of respect, altruism and dedication.

We make our skills, professionalism and knowledge available to create a network of managerial resources and influences that contribute with consistency and application to developing a large community and materializing a vision that is no longer just a dream but a concrete possibility.
