Get ready for next World Cup
Rugby World Cup 2011 (RWC 2011), being held in New Zealand for the first time since the inaugural event in 1987, opened for tickets on 27 April 2010. Teams representing 20 nations will compete in 48 matches across 13 host cities between 9 September and 23 October 2011. MasterCard Worldwide, as a worldwide partner and the official payment system of RWC 2011, has made it twice as likely for its clients to secure tickets to the semi-finals and the final, as they receive double entries into the ballots.
