For a work project, I need to know about sporting tournaments, seeing as I know zero about this stuff.

Football:
I know World Cup in 2002, but what about Euro or UEFA etc?
Are there tournaments every year?

Rugby:
Same as above, are there world competitions? Is it yearly etc?

Golf

Cricket

I basically need to know what competitions are run for each of these, the major ones. Are England in any of these?

I really, really dont know anything about sport.

The Ryder Cup (golf) is every "2" years. It's been cancelled this year due to the terrorist attacks.

Golf, know a bit about that.

4 Majors every year. US PGA, US Masters, the Open, US Open.
( I think )

And Ryder Cup every 4 years between 12 Europeans and 12 Americans.
