MEDIA STATEMENT

Organisers hail success of seventh Rugby World Cup
Tournament organiser Rugby New Zealand 2011 today thanked the people of New Zealand for the way they embraced the seventh Rugby World Cup and contributed to its success.
“New Zealand has done itself proud,” said RNZ 2011 Chairman Brian Roche.
“Rugby fans, even those with a passing interest in the Game have dressed up, painted their faces and turned each match into a true festival of Rugby and our country. Others have gone to Fanzones, enjoyed REAL New Zealand Festival events and given our visitors the best of welcomes.
“We promised a stadium of four million great fans and hosts and without a doubt New Zealand has delivered.
“None of this would have been possible without the passion and dedication of an army of people across New Zealand.
“The Team 2011 volunteers have been at the forefront of our efforts to look after visitors and ensure they left with the best of memories of their time here while also contributing to the successful delivery of 48 matches.
“Through the past six years since we won the bid to host RWC 2011, our partners have worked tirelessly to ensure we created the best platform to deliver on the promises we made in Dublin.
“Today we thank those in central and local government, the NZ 2011 Office, provincial Rugby unions, regional tourism and other industry organisations and of course the staff and management of our own organisation, RNZ 2011. The collective efforts of so many have ensured we have delivered an event all New Zealanders can be proud of and one that enhances our country’s position on the world stage.
“Most importantly from our position as Tournament organiser, we have shown the world that our great, little country can deliver a globally significant event with a host of challenges. We are confident our success stands New Zealand in good stead to attract major events in the future.
“We are proud of our achievements in meeting our ticket revenue target and successfully delivering 48 matches at 12 venues. Last night’s thrilling Final was the icing on the cake of what was already one of the great Rugby World Cups.
“I would also like to thank the IRB, Chairman Bernard Lapasset, CEO Mike Miller and their team at subsidiary Rugby World Cup Ltd for the close cooperation and support they have given us since we won the bid.”
IRB Chairman Bernard Lapasset said the seventh Rugby World Cup had been an outstanding success.
“New Zealand 2011 will be remembered as an exceptional Rugby World Cup. It has been a Tournament where New Zealand’s rich culture and heritage has gone hand in hand with Rugby’s tradition and values.
“New Zealanders should be proud of their event. They made it special by embracing the tournament the length and breadth of the country, welcoming all 20 teams and 100,000 international visitors with open arms. It was quite remarkable."
Lapasset also praised the Tournament Organisers and the spirit of close collaboration that has delivered one of the great Rugby World Cups.
“I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Brian Roche, Martin Snedden and the Rugby New Zealand 2011 team, the New Zealand Rugby Union and the Government for their vision, dedication and hard work in delivering Rugby World Cup 2011 in partnership with the IRB team.
“Their reward is the successful hosting of what will be remembered as one of the great Rugby World Cups, a sporting and operational success.
“New Zealand 2011 has positioned the country as a major event host, a superb tourism destination and a great country. It has also taken our sport to new audiences and has set the bar for future hosts.”

ΜΕΓΑΛΗ ΕΠΙΤΥΧΙΑ ΣΤΟ 7ς ΤΗΣ ΡΙΓΑ / GREAT SUCCESS IN RIGA 7's

Η ισοβαθμία στην πρώτη θέση του ομίλου με την τιτλούχο Σερβία, ήταν κάτι παραπάνω από καταπληκτικό. Και τελικά η ομάδα θα μπορούσε να πάρει ακόμα και την τρίτη θέση. Αξίζουν πολλά συγχαρητήρια σε όλη την αποστολή. Το δίδαγμα της ιστορίας είναι πως τελικά, όποια άποψη κι αν έχουμε, όποια κριτική και αν κάνουμε, οφείλουμε όλοι να στηρίζουμε την προσπάθεια. Στην αποτυχία ας χρεώνουμε όποιον νομίζουμε, μα ας έχουμε κάνει κάτι για την επιτυχία........ Θα πρέπει επίσης να συγχαρούμε και όσους συνέβαλαν στην προετοιμασία της Εθνικής, όπως τον Γιώργο Πηλίδη, τον Κώστα Καρανδρέα και τον Μπάμπη Βαβαρούτσο!
