England Rugby 2015 CEO Debbie Jevans has confirmed that "ticket pricing and kick-off times for the World Cup will be announced in November," according to the BELFAST TELEGRAPH. Ticket prices will range from £7-£715 ($11-$1,153) and will "go on sale 12 months before the competition starts, although further details are still being finalised, while kick-off times are close to be agreed." Jevans: "In the last 12 months we have achieved a great deal and laid the foundations -- two years out we are on track and in good shape" (BELFAST TELEGRAPH, 9/17). SKY SPORTS reported tournament organizers "will call upon the assistance" of 6,000 volunteers for the event. Jevans explained how "grassroots rugby clubs will be at the forefront of the drive for volunteers." Jevans: "75% of our volunteers are going to come from the rugby family and I'm really excited about that. Every club in the country will have the opportunity to have at least one volunteer" (SKY SPORTS, 9/18).
