Rugby World Cup - see the teams battle for the Webb Ellis Cup

Alongside the Six Nations Rugby and Autumn Rugby Internationals, this competition is considered one of the most prestigious competitions in the world of rugby. It is a tournament that is played every four years between the top international teams, and the winners are awarded the highly coveted Webb Ellis Cup (an award that is named after school pupil William Webb Ellis, who allegedly invented the game during a football match at his school in Rugby). Some of the teams to have won the title most often include the New Zealand, South Africa, England and Australia rugby teams. Around 20 teams usually compete over six weeks, with a pool stage and a knockout stage. The winner and runner up of each pool then enter the knockout stage, in other words, the quarter and semi-finals, before proceeding to the final. This thrilling competition has taken place all over the world.
