Here it is — the 2017 and 21st Wooden Spoon Rugby World Year Book. Now of age, this firmly established annual is the only illustrated yearbook produced for the rugby enthusiast. In this beautifully illustrated book many of the country's leading rugby writers reflect on the happenings of the past season and look ahead to what is in store for 2017. All aspects of rugby — club, internationals, women's, sevens, youth — are covered in a book which celebrates winners around the world and tackles some of the issues that rugby faces as it continues to attract lager audiences both at the grounds and on television following the great success of the Rugby World Cup tournament. Royalties from book sales go the Wooden Spoon rugby charity which has raised millions for disadvantaged children and young people.
