2018 England

With the 2010 tournament scheduled for South Africa and the tournament likely to be in South America for 2014 , the hosts for 2018 look set to come from Europe, Asia or Oceania. Potential competition to an English bid is likely to come from; Australia, Mexico, Holland/Belgium, Spain & China. Read more about other nations potential bids here.
