The IRFU are inviting rugby mad Irish kids aged 7 to 15 (inclusive) to apply to become the person to present Ireland’s Rugby World Cup 2023 bid book to World Rugby on Thursday, June 1, 2017.
The National Union are inviting parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents to enter a child they believe is rugby mad, confident, outgoing, likes getting their photograph taken and most importantly – is ready to take their place in the history of Irish Rugby, by joining our team as they deliver the document to World Rugby that will underline why Ireland is ‘Ready for the World’.
Munster are sure to have a number of our up-and-coming stars involved, as well as some of the current crop, who are currently looking forward to Saturday’s Pro12 semi-final against the Ospreys. However, the first Munster representative could be the young face of the campaign, as Ireland look to host the entire competition for the very first time.
To enter, simply email a picture of the ‘rugby mad’ child and explain in 50 words or less why your child should be Ireland’s ‘bid kid’ for Rugby World Cup 2023.
Please include your name and contact details as well as the photo and explanation.
The bid submission will be made as part of a media event which we expect will draw significant print, photography and TV interest so it is important that the child is comfortable in such an environment!
A full list of Terms & Conditions is available on the IRFU website
