What is World 12s?

World 12s is a new rugby union tournament for our changing fast-paced world. The world’s best players will be split into franchised teams and will compete annually around the world in an exciting 12 v 12 format. This reduced format will lead to a high scoring, high pressure and attractive rugby being played, whilst keeping the shape and a semblance of the structure of 15s. World 12s will also offer unprecedented prize money for the tournament winners.

It’s going to bring so many positive changes to enhance our game, It will have speed, physicality and skill. Similar to T20 cricket it will create an excitement that we are missing at present.

How will World 12s be played?

World 12s will follow the current laws of 15s, but with a few exciting adaptations:
• 12 players in a team – six forwards and six backs
• 15-minute halves
• Conversions will be drop goals only
• Only one scrum reset, followed by a free kick
• Scrum infringements are penalised by a differential penalty (a penalty that cannot be kicked at goal)
• In the knockout stages, if matches are tied at full time, a golden point will decide the winner
