The World Series brings together four nations, Nigeria, Canada, Ireland, and Fiji, all competing for the final qualification slot for the 2026 Women’s Rugby League World Cup in Australia and Papua New Guinea.

The Green Falcons, com posed largely of amateur athletes from modest backgrounds, have risen through grit and determination to represent Africa on the global stage, inspiring young women across the continent to dream beyond their circumstances.

“Supporting the Green Falcons goes to the heart of what we stand for at Chappal Energies.

“Belief, perseverance and possibility are qualities we hold dear. We are committed to creating opportunities that help to unlock that potential.

“Our Falcons represent the resilience, courage, and ambition that drive progress in our communities and our country. We are proud to stand with them as they make history for Nigeria and for Africa,” Chappal Energies’ Managing Director, Ufoma Immanuel said.

Meanwhile, the Falcons will play their first World Series match today.
