The draw for the European Qualification Tournament for RLWC2017 will take place in Paris tomorrow (Wednesday November 4th) at 6.00PM (CET)
The draw, which is seeded, will create two pools of three nations:
The seeds, which will be kept in separate pools, are:
No1 Ireland & Wales
No 2 Serbia & Russia
No 3 Italy & Spain
The Number 1 seeds will be drawn, followed by the Number 2 and finally, Number 3
Once the two pools are created the positions within each pool will be drawn and allocated - Team A, Team B and Team C - this will give the order of play for the fixtures.
