Return to Rugby Update
We hope that you’re all as excited as we are about last Friday’s announcement of our planned #ReturnToRugby from the end of the month.
It’s been great to see many clubs and Constituent Bodies using that hashtag across their social media channels. Please feel free to do the same and post photos of players getting ready for rugby at home – fully kitted out in club kits, in the kitchen perhaps, or putting boots on in the garden?
As promised, we will share detailed stage D guidance later this week, which will include equipment that can be used and advice you can follow for a gradual return to contact rugby.
Our Club Support Centre FAQs and Return to Rugby page below will continue to be updated as further guidance is published by government, for example relating to facilities such as changing rooms and clubhouses. It is likely that clubhouse re-opening will follow government’s national guidance for the hospitality industry. However, we hope to receive changing room guidance over the next couple of weeks.
Until Monday 29 March, unless you are an age grade player taking part in organised school or college rugby activity, we remain at Stage A on the Return to Rugby Roadmap. This means individuals are only allowed to exercise alone, or with one other from another household.
A shareable Return to Rugby Roadmap can be found here
