France will begin their Six Nations against Italy in the small town of Riom in central France, and to celebrate the selection of their town as international hosts the people and local council will tomorrow starts TWO WEEKS of celebrations leading up to the game. There will be live music concerts in the town square, exhibitions in the local museums and libraries, debates on women's sport featuring major "sports personalities", visits by sportswomen to schools to promote all women's sport (not just rugby), rugby tournaments, a fashion show, dinners, more music...
Its amazing.
I wonder what the local council for Esher have planned for the England international they are staging?
