| World Cup Abstract |
This cup was permanently awarded in 1970 to then three-time winner Brazil (1958, 1962, and 1970), and a new trophy called the FIFA World Cup was put up for competition. Many other sports have organized “World Cup” competitions.
This is your invitation to experience ideas into action with present and future world leaders over three unforgettable days of competition, collaboration and celebration.
Set to be the biggest and best Rugby League World Cup in history, the inspirational moments of England 2021 will capture the imagination of all.
In a breakthrough moment for Rugby League, the men’s, women’s and wheelchair games will come together for the first time on the sports biggest stage.
Marvin Bonheur, whose artistic alias translates as Mister Happiness, is from Seine-Saint-Denis, which is often referred to by its department number, 93. Situated to the northeast of Paris, it is the poorest part of mainland France, according to Insee, the country’s office of national statistics.
“There are joys that come with growing up here,” says Bonheur, as he takes me on a trip through the area. “And challenges.” Bonheur has fed these conflicting emotions into a powerful, yet poignant photo trilogy – Alzheimer, Therapy and the forthcoming Renaissance – that aims to tell the truth about day-to-day life not just in the 93 but throughout the banlieue. In recent years, French galleries have started taking notice. He’s had two solo exhibitions in Paris with a third one slated for spring, in addition to collaborations with streetwear brands, barbershops and magazines.
World Cup teams are not limited to players of a certain age or amateur status, so the competition serves more nearly as a contest between the world’s best players. Referees are selected from lists that are submitted by all the national associations.
