The Bledisloe Glacier is a glacier in the Ross Dependency of Antarctica . West of the Churchill Mountains it flows between the All-Blacks and Wallabies Nunatakkern in a northerly direction.
The New Zealand Antarctic Place Names Committee named it in 2003, based on the naming of the two neighboring Nunatakker groups after the Bledisloe Cup , which is held annually between the rugby national teams of the New Zealand All Blacks and the Australian Wallabies .
