...and promote...

By choosing Sunderland, the England 2025 organizing committee is committing to take rugby union to a non-traditional rugby union area of the country. There is no women's top-flight rugby side north of Manchester after Sale were given a Premiership Women's Rugby franchise in the last round.

Leader of Sunderland City Council, councillor Graeme Miller, for BBC said: "It's incredibly exciting for Sunderland to be playing host to the opening game of the Women's Rugby World Cup at the Stadium of Light.

The last few years have seen a massive surge of interest in women's rugby and women's sport in general, so having the opportunity to cheer on the Red Roses in a World Cup match so close to home is brilliant news for sports fans across the northeast.
