<\/p>The government\u2019s sport strategy \u201cSporting Future\u201d highlighted the importance of focusing on groups that are particularly unlikely to take part in sport and physical activity, such as women and girls. It is vital we build on successes like the performance of England at the Women\u2019s Rugby World Cup in 2017 to inspire more girls and women to get involved in sport.<\/ins> Sport England, government\u2019s arm\u2019s length body for community sport, is funding both the Rugby Football Union (RFU) and Rugby Football League (RFL) to build capacity and encourage participation. Both of these national governing bodies have also partnered with Sport England\u2019s \u201cThis Girl Can\u201d campaign, to encourage more women and girls to get involved with their sports. Government is also supporting the staging and legacy of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup, which will be hosted by England and will bring together the women\u2019s, men\u2019s and wheelchair tournaments for the first time. <\/ins> <\/p>"}
