NZRU visits soccer World Cup for 2011 tips

The NZRU has been to the soccer World Cup on a fact finding mission for when New Zealand hosts the Rugby World Cup in 2011.

Former All Black and current community rugby manager Buck Anderson has now returned from Germany.

He said the organisers had looked after non-ticket holders by making sure they have somewhere to watch games and be entertained.

Anderson said the main park in Berlin was a good venue as it had several giant screens erected and streets fenced off to provide a carnival atmosphere.
