As the 2025 Rugby World Cup, kicking off on Friday 22nd August, grows closer and closer, we wanted to find a way to celebrate the best women’s players in the global game as they descend on England.

So we gathered a group of experts together and set them the *not* so simple task of ranking the world’s best players from 50-1.
Naturally, with so many players at the peak of their powers, there was heated debate around this topic. But it’s not simply a matter of ranking players purely by their achievements.
There were many other factors to consider, from hard-built reputations from years of service, to leadership qualities, to consistency, to raw ability.

After much deliberation we’ve whittled down the list, and with representation from nine different countries, the RugbyPass team have come up with the current top 50 women’s rugby players in the world.
We know there’ll be disagreements and alternatives to what we’ve come up with, but it goes without saying, this isn’t a closed debate but an invitation to converse and celebrate the players that make up the game we love.

The Top 50 players will be revealed from Tuesday 5th August on RugbyPass. Don’t miss it!
UPDATE: The Top 50 list is now LIVE, with more players revealed every day this week.
