The
Classic, which features former top players once
again representing their countries in international
competition, encompasses eleven international
matches over the course of the Classic Week,
including a women's international between the
British Isles and the United States.
All
the games are played at the National Sports Centre,
the venue for the Classic since 2000. With packages
which range from daily admission to the ground
through various levels, culminating in the Members
Tent (the VIP facility), the Classic provides
a wide range of ticket prices to suit every budget.
And for those involved in corporate entertainment,
our Corporate Hospitality Village is considered
to be one of the best in sport, situated right
on the touchline, up close and personal!
The
World Rugby Classic was first played in Bermuda
in 1988, developing from the Easter Rugby Classic,
an event which featured many of the world's top
players from 1972 to 1992. As players left the
international arena, mainly due to the whims
of the international selectors, a void was created
in that a stage no longer existed for the players
to show their many talents or to inter-mingle
with their fellow internationals from around
the globe. Thus, the idea was conceived to bring
back these players by providing them with an
opportunity to, once again, represent their country
in international competition.
With
ten international matches in the Classic competition,
a women's international as well as an international
match involving Bermuda and the Caribbean, the
Classic has caught the imagination of players
and spectators alike. With spectators able to
mix freely with some of the great names of international
rugby in a great social environment, Classic
week is an event unique in the world of sport. |
