Nominations are open for the Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 collection

You can nominate content to preserve the digital legacy of the Women's Rugby World Cup 2025.

23 July 2025

England are the hosts for the Women's Rugby World Cup 2025. The group stages will take place in Brighton & Hove, Exeter, Bristol, Northampton, Manchester, York and Sunderland with the final taking place at Twickenham in London. England has hosted the tournament before but this is the first time that the tournament will be at Twickenham, the home of English rugby. 

The UK Web Archive is collaborating with other GLAM sector organisations, the official tournament partners from England 2025 (Local Organising Committee) and UK Sport to preserve the digital legacy of the Women's Rugby World Cup 2025.

Over the next few weeks there will be blog posts from the British Library, National Library of Scotland, National Library of Wales and the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland (PRONI) that will give an overview of what content they are selecting for the collection.

Due to the cyber-attack on the British Library in October 2023 the archive is not accessible at the moment but we are still actively archiving and preserving websites.

To find out more about what type of content you can nominate, read the blog post What to nominate for Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025.
