Returning to the UK for the first time since 2000, the competition will be hosted by England and Wales.



The Hertz Corporation has signed with Rugby League World Cup 2013 (RLWC2013) as their Official Vehicle Hire Supplier. The world’s largest general car use brand will provide a fleet of cars to carry players and officials between the tournament’s matches and vans for moving equipment such as players’ kit. In addition, a specially branded Hertz van will transport the iconic Rugby League World Cup trophy as it visits clubs, schools and landmarks in all of RLWC2013’s host communities in the months running up to the competition. The RLWC2013 Hertz van has already been launched with the help of international players Lee Briers, Tyrone McCarthy, Richie Myler and Ben Westwood.



To celebrate the new partnership, Hertz and RLWC2013 are offering ticket holders a 10% discount off basic car rental for all car groups booked in the UK between now and November 30, 2013 for hire during the fixtures, which run from October 26 to November 30, 2013. The special offer can be obtained simply by visiting www.rlwc2013.com and entering the six digit discount code on display.



Returning to the UK for the first time since 2000, the competition is hosted by England and Wales, and competing nations include Australia, France, Ireland, Italy, the USA and current champions, New Zealand. The tournament is also widely acknowledged as an addition to Great Britain’s bid for a ’Golden Decade’ of British sport, alongside events such as the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the 2013 Champions League Final, and the 2014 Ryder Cup.



The RLWC2013 alliance is the latest addition to Hertz’s international sports portfolio, with existing partnerships including The Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Championships, British MotoGP, West Bromwich Albion FC, the New Zealand International Sevens Rugby Tournament, and Melbourne Football Club.
