UK home for rugby league proposed with national museum
Plans for a national museum dedicated to rugby league could come to the UK as early as 2020, with a feasibility study now commissioned to find a permanent home for the sport’s rich heritage.
National Football Museum director Kevin Moore is leading the working group undertaking the feasibility study, which will look at aspects such as location, funding options and timeframes.
Commissioned by charitable organisation Rugby League Cares, the proposed museum would celebrate the sport’s heritage on all levels and give the 120-year-old game a dedicated home. The National Rugby League Museum could also bring a physical version of the Rugby League Hall of Fame, which currently features 25 of the game’s most iconic players.
“It is clear that there is a game-wide passion for rugby league’s heritage and a national museum will bring to life the characters and events that have helped shaped this great sport over the last 120 years and before,” said Moore.
“We are looking at developing a high quality museum that eclipses all other sports museums in the world, a facility that is immersive, interactive and educational and which contributes to the strategic objectives of the game.”
The working group is currently liaising with local authorities for a location. Once that is finalised will create a revenue plan to meet the 2020 opening goal.
