England's Red Roses have secured their third Women's Rugby World Cup title, their first in 11 years, by defeating Canada 33-13 in the final.
The victory took place at a sold-out Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, in front of a record crowd for any women's rugby fixture.
The triumph extended England's impressive winning streak to 33 consecutive matches, marking a significant achievement for English women's sport.
A public trophy celebration for the team is scheduled for Sunday 28 September, from 2pm to 4pm, at North Park, Battersea Power Station.
The Rugby Football Union plans to capitalise on the win by having squad members visit community rugby clubs nationwide to promote the growth of women's and girls' rugby.
