Live on the 8 Hours set, Samuel Ollivier looks back on the start of the Women’s Rugby Cup, scheduled for this weekend.
The Women’s Rugby Cup kicks off the weekend of October 8-9. This is the ninth edition of the World Cup. Twelve teams are on the starting line. A month of competition is planned. “Two favourites: New Zealand and England”, explains journalist Samuel Ollivier. First game for Les Bleues, Saturday October 8 at… 3:15 am. And for good reason, the competition takes place in New Zealand. The France team will face South Africa.
Les Bleues will then meet England. It will be October 15, at 9 a.m. Then it will be Fiji’s turn on October 22 at 8:15 a.m. Samuel Ollivier dwelt a little on the profile of the players, who must, for many, continue their studies and work to be able to live the rest of the year. Jessy Trémoulière, for example, is a farmer. For her part, Manae Feleu is in her 4th year of medicine.
