New Zealand Rugby chief executive Steve Tew said the Black Ferns' latest world cup win inspired rugby fans - both new and existing - around the country.

"The team and their management went to Ireland with one goal in mind and they achieved it. They inspired us all with their skills and team work and made us proud to be Kiwis," he said.

"The pride and affection for the team we all feel demonstrates how sport can bring us together and uplift us. We want to give Kiwis an opportunity to show their appreciation for this special team."
