Organisers of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup have confirmed the tournament will go ahead as planned and remain confident Australia will be in England to defend their trophy. We can confirm that the biggest and best ever Rugby League World Cup will go ahead as scheduled in October and November 2021. Grant said: “The World Cup going ahead this year is critical. There was no international rugby league in 2020 and it was sorely missed. “I think the additional measures we need to put in place are small and I am very confident we can do that over the next few weeks.”
