Purple Mash has a range of resources that can be used during the Rugby World Cup and offers the perfect opportunity to link geography to sport, with pupils being able to use the country fact files to find out more about the countries taking part this year.

They can also hone their journalistic writing techniques by completing a match report, finding out more about their favourite player and researching previous winners of the Rugby World Cup. There are also creative applications that pupils can use to design the front cover for a rugby magazine or design a poster to cheer on their favourite team, as well as using one of our paint projects to design a rugby shirt.
