The 5th Women's Rugby Union World Cup took place in Canada from August 31 to September 17, 2006 . 12 national teams (four fewer than in 2002) competed against each other in a total of 30 games. These were held in Edmonton and St. Albert in the province of Alberta . New Zealand secured the world title for the third time in a row.
With 35 points from seven attempts, Heather Moyse was the most successful point collector.
Preliminary round
There were four groups with three teams each. The teams in group A played against those in group D, the teams in group B against those in group C. The group winners qualify for the semi-finals, the other teams for the classification games.
The distribution of points in the preliminary round was based on the following system:
4 points if you win
2 points if there is a tie
0 points in the event of a loss (before possible bonus points)
1 bonus point for four or more successful tries ( tests ), regardless of the final score
1 bonus point if you lose less than seven points
