Rugby Cup in New Zealand, a Cultural Experience for TravelWorkers

Working Holidaymakers in New Zealand to discover country’s national sport

Münster, Germany, March 20, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Rugby World Cup will bring an estimated 1.7 million sport fans to the rugby pitches of New Zealand in 2011, an excellent opportunity for Working Holiday Visa travellers to experience the country’s sport culture at its height, according to European-based tour operator TravelWorks.

“2011 is the perfect time for Working Holidaymakers to head for New Zealand, because there will be so much going on,” said Jennifer Tick, programme coordinator for New Zealand with TravelWorks. “Rugby is such a huge part of New Zealand’s culture, and this will be an excellent opportunity for our participants to experience New Zealand as it comes together for its national sport.”

On top of the cultural experience offered by the World Cup, participants will also have the chance to work or volunteer in jobs created by the sporting event. A variety of short-term jobs, including hotel and restaurant work, construction, flyer distribution, and security, are also likely to peak as a result of the rugby tournament, which will take place in September and October.

Working Holiday participants in New Zealand with TravelWorks will be a step ahead of other job-seekers, with access to an exclusive job database, an informational job workshop, and personalised assistance from an international staff based in Auckland. Other services include assistance with important formalities such as opening a New Zealand bank account and signing up for a tax file number, as well as help finding local accommodation.

“TravelWorks participants receive everything they need to get a good start on their working holiday in New Zealand as well as continued support throughout their stay,” Tick said. “During the Rugby World Cup this will be no different, plus participants will get to experience a major sports event close up.”
