[HIGHLIGHTS] Women's rugby seeks new audiences to reduce gaps

Women's Six Nations Tournament, won by England in front of the France, confirmed the gulf between the selections. World Rugby launched a new programme, called "Accelerate", attacking the grassroots of the game.

The aim is to "create stronger, more competitive and sustainably growing women's rugby" World Rugby's governing body will form bespoke partnerships with national federations, governments and brands to raise levels on and off the field in preparation for a historic Rugby World Cup in 2033 in the United States.
