World Rugby has set a deadline of September for Japan 2019 to reassure
the organisation that it is still capable of staging the Rugby World Cup
after plans for a new national stadium were scrapped and will not be
the host venue for the tournament.
The Japanese government decided to remove the stadium from among the 2019 Rugby World Cup venues.
World Rugby is seeking formal reassurance regarding the following key
hosting criteria by the end of September in order to undertake a
thorough review and analysis of the information:
1, A revised detailed host venue proposal that delivers
exceptional team and fan experience, maximising opportunities for fans
to be a part of rugby’s showcase event
2, A revised tournament budget with appropriate financial security
World Rugby remains confident that the criteria can be met by the
Japan Rugby 2019 Organising Committee and that the first Rugby World Cup
in Asia will be a resounding success.
