That is a discussion for another day/thread. But it seems unlikely due to the relative number of coaches on the European continent vs North America.
Anything can happen though and maybe Canada will put in a bid for 2015 edition............
I'd have to check but i think there are more NAF registered coaches in north America than Europe.
So I hope so otherwise its a big "eurobowl(and friends)" not a world cup
Interesting, I had not checked the actual data. hmmmm |

a quick glance at the ranking page shows 21 pages of coaches for USA, 36 pages for UK. of course that doesnt take into consideration which of those coaches are active. but anyways this is not on topic, so appologies there  |

| That statement fails to take into account that the number of pages is not related to number of coaches, as most coaches will have used more than one team. There are several with rankings on all 24. |

In my opinion, question isn't only how many coaches ere there in each country. It's also how many coaches attend to tournaments in these countries. There are a lot of big tournaments in Europe (2 tournaments in France with more than 100 coaches in 2010, one with even 144 to only give an example). It's not because american coaches are less numerous or do like less coming to tournaments. That may be because of long distances in the country. But, according to me, a WC in Europe will have more coaches than a WC in United States or Canada.
That said, I would like the 3rd WC to take place in North America if possible, as it is the WORLD cup and so I don't want it to always take place in Europe.
But, well, let's seriously talk about it after WC II.  |

| I'm now wondering how many Europeans have played in American tournaments, and vice versa. |

We're looking for options to get everybody in. Since the final draw will be done in a months time and many things can change, we can't make any promises.
If everything stays as it is and nothing changes (and nobody withdraws) and we can't get the options we're looking at, then only two teams would fall out.

The numbers come from France being another small country. Just about everyone can drive an hour and be there. |
