The week before the tournament starts, there will also be a satellite competition involving emerging nations and other teams from Australia and New Zealand.
Hopefully the fans will come out and support the 2003 World Sevens and the competition will be the stepping stone for more nations to emerge into the World of Rugby League.
The satellite competition is also a great idea as it gives the chance for the emerging nations and teams to compete against players at their own level and it's a fully structured competition as well.

He was the England coach in the 1995 rugby league World Cup final, he was on the losing side and he has said that the experience affected him profoundly.
The centre produced some of his finest rugby in a campaign that saw him become an integral part of an England side that lifted the RBS Six Nations Championship and completed a clean-sweep over the southern hemisphere teams both home and away.
Bath Rugby supporters are unlikely to see the player in action until December (if England win the World Cup), but on his return expect a typically committed performance from a player who is desperate to win honours with his beloved Bath Rugby.

The Cook Islands are appearing in the World Cup for the first time, eager to build on the excellent reputation they earned in winning the 1995 Emerging Nations tournament.
The Cooks’ star names should include the Kevin Iro — his brother Tony rejected a plea for him to come out of retirement — well known throughout the Rugby League world, with many Test appearances for New Zealand behind him.
But, with a sizeable number of expatriate Cook Islanders living and playing in New Zealand, they have never been short of players with hardened Rugby League experience.
