Alresford celebrates planned arrival of the Webb Ellis Cup
THE Webb Ellis Cup, also known as the Rugby World Cup, is coming to Alresford on August 26.
It will be at Arlebury Park, the home of the town rugby club, from 2-8pm.
The club is arranging a full day of fun events to celebrate this.
There will be opportunities to take selfies with the cup that has been awarded every four years to the winners of the competition first held in 1987. England triumphed with Jonny Wilkinson's famous last-minute drop kick in 2003.
