Defender Marks 100 Days Till Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025

The countdown to Women’s Rugby World Cup 2025 is officially on! With 100 days to go, Defender unveiled its custom vehicle that will take the trophy on a tour of England. As the tournament’s Principal Partner, the bespoke 110 began its journey at Battersea Power Station in London earlier in the week.

The tournament kicks off on the 22nd of August with England playing the USA at the Stadium of Light in Sunderland, a special ground that serves as the home for Sunderland AFC. Special glazing and lighting will ensure that the trophy can be seen by all as the unique Defender 110 vehicle tours the eight host cities across England. Gold detailing and two tone matte/gloss black paint work also help make this quite the eye catcher.

No stranger to rugby, Defender was the Worldwide Partner of Rugby World Cup 2023 in France and its Defender Trailblazers initiative represents those who embody the spirit of the game.

The special vehicle can already be seen around London with Brighton and Hove being its next stop followed by Exeter, Bristol, Northampton, Manchester, York and finally Sunderland, in time for the opening game!
