Armed Forces Rugby League Squad Fly To World Cup

The UK Armed Forces Rugby League squad are on their way to Sydney to take part in the Defence World Cup.

The 24 man squad has been picked from across the three services. They'll be representing the UK in four matches over the eight day championships in Australia. Their first game against the joint Fijian forces is on July 7th before they take on the Australian Defence Force and the New Zealand Defence Force, then they'll face either a third place play off or a place the final.

Forces TV reporter Cath Brazier went to Dale Barracks in Chester to see them off, and will be bringing reports on all their games to Forces TV and here on Forces.net.
