:14:33. > :14:40.in the city centre and across the wider area. First, Andy has more on
:14:41. > :14:45.the announcements. In case you needed a reminddr, the
:14:46. > :14:52.Rugby World Cup is coming to Devon. The University is one of fotr sites
:14:53. > :14:57.to be chosen as a team base. The first facility is a high`qu`lity
:14:58. > :15:05.playing surface. We have done a lot of work on regrading and it is well
:15:06. > :15:12.drained. There is a free wax to training facility and development
:15:13. > :15:19.centre. We are delighted we can squeeze them in there. They need
:15:20. > :15:23.massive weights. Looking at the facilities at the 100 venues, the
:15:24. > :15:29.organisers are delighted with the results. The south`west will be a
:15:30. > :15:33.crucial part of Rugby World Cup We are thrilled we are holding the
:15:34. > :15:42.games that Sandy Park and the team bases will have a warm welcome. For
:15:43. > :15:47.the Tongan players, playing well for their team is the number`1 priority.
:15:48. > :15:54.It is about the big picture. I can play well here, everything will take
:15:55. > :16:02.care of itself. It is good to have another team`mate from Tong` to have
:16:03. > :16:05.banter with. They are making finishing touches to Sandy Park for
:16:06. > :16:09.the opener in two weeks timd but it is about the World Cup and that
:16:10. > :16:13.comes here next year. Not only have the facilities been upgraded but
:16:14. > :16:22.they have laid this new plaxing surface. We have been throwhng a
:16:23. > :16:28.couple of things around with the boys on the pitch. Really looking

:17:10. > :17:15.could be talking up to ?6 mhllion of the whole region. Who will ht
:17:16. > :17:19.benefit? A lot of visitors will be coming to the region for thd first
:17:20. > :17:22.time and they will be staying in hotels, eating in restaurants and
:17:23. > :17:27.hopefully they will incorporate a trip to the rugby matches whth a
:17:28. > :17:36.holiday or mini break. We h`ve seen the rise of our rugby team. If you
:17:37. > :17:42.bring in 10,000 for a game, a lot of these people are coming and will
:17:43. > :17:46.take a holiday at the same time as going to a match. The likes of

:20:40. > :20:47.you know why? Was it just one of those things? It was pretty tough
:20:48. > :20:51.going into the Europeans. I went to Berlin and chilled out a little bit
:20:52. > :20:55.more than the Commonwealth Games. There seemed to be less pressure
:20:56. > :21:00.because not many people knew I was going for the metal in individual.
:21:01. > :21:05.You must be shattered because you got back in the early hours of this
