MEDIA ACCREDITATION PROCESS OPENS FOR RUGBY LEAGUE WORLD CUP 2021
Members of the media can now register for accreditation to attend Rugby League World Cup 2021.
This is an online process that can be completed via the Media Accreditation Portal and only applies to written press, photographers and non-rights holding TV and radio broadcasters. More information on the RLWC2021 is available here.
If you believe your circumstances warrant media accreditation, then please apply and RLWC2021 will give due consideration to your request.
As part of the application process, members of the media will need to upload a colour headshot photograph with a plain background (like a passport photo) – jpeg file.
RLWC2021 reserves the right to approve/reject/request further information on all applications in its sole discretion and without providing reasons for doing so.
Applications will be reviewed frequently so the earlier you apply the earlier you will be notified if you have been successful.
Whilst selecting matches, the media is advised to bear in mind the following:
Your tournament pass doesn’t guarantee you a space in the media working area on a match day. Therefore, for each match, there will be a match-day accreditation list which the RLWC2021 will prepare ahead of each match.
Match notifications for the tournament will begin closer to the event and will be published on the online portal. You will be able to log into your account and see the matches for which you have been allocated a seat in the press box, or a photo position.
Non-Rights Holders (NRHs) camerapersons will be accredited for the tournament, but only reporters will be accredited on match days.
