James Johnson - Operations Workforce Coordinator
What attracted you to work for RLWC2021?
Firstly, I love the buzz of working for a major international sporting event, it’s a buzz like no other! For the Rugby League World Cup to be coming to England and for the final to be played in the city I went to university in, it’s a an opportunity you can’t turn down. Also having played rugby since the age of 8, it ticks all the boxes and should be a fantastic event.
What’s your favourite sporting moment?
There’s so many to choose from but it has to be Jonny Wilkinson’s drop goal in the 2003 Rugby Union World Cup final. I know that it’s union, not league, but it’s such an iconic moment to win the World Cup in the last moments of the match!
