Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The European Cup (formerly known as the European Championship and European Nations Cup) is a rugby league tournament for European nations. The tournament was first started in 1935, with England, Wales and France each playing each other once. Unlike the Tri-Nations series, there was no final; the team finishing at the top of the group was deemed the winner. It is run by the Rugby League European Federation. The tournament was initially played annually, with the exception of the years of the Second World War. In 1946-47, the tournament was altered, with each team playing each other twice, at home and away. The 1949-50 season saw a return to playing only once, but a new team, "Other Nationalities", was added. This team consisted of players who were not English, Welsh, or French playing in the British and French leagues: Australian, New Zealanders, Scots, Irish players and others all played for this new side.
