RWC 2019 Match Schedule Announcement Coming on Thursday

The RWC 2019 match schedule announcement is coming on Thursday. World Rugby will make the announcement live from Japan, the host nation of the 2019 Rugby World Cup tournament.

With Argentina and the USA already qualified either Canada or Uruguay to do so in February it is an extremely important time for Americas rugby.

As was the case in Rugby World Cups 1999, 2003 and 2015 the Americas is looking placed to have four participants. The possibility of both Canada and Uruguay qualifying is very much realistic.

On Thursday both Canada and Uruguay will know their scheduling, should they qualify. Argentina and the USA will also and will be able to begin planning knowing where they play, on which dates and how many rest days they will have between matches.

The announcement will be streamed live on the following youtube video. It will take place at 4am Argentina and 3am Eastern.
