    In partnership with Bradford Bulls RLFC and Keighley Cougars RLFC, Bradford Council has submitted its bid to be part of the Rugby League World Cup in 2021.

    To celebrate the submission of the bid to host the women’s element of the tournament, the bidding team, members of Bradford Bulls Women’s Team and representatives of the council will get to see the Rugby League World Cup trophy, when it takes its place as the centre piece to a special exhibition of current and retired Rugby League silverware, at Bradford City Hall on Saturday 11 August.

    If the Bradford bid is selected, venues throughout the district could be used to host matches, team base camps and training camps.
