#ReturnToRugby Webinar Invite: Skill Development & Return To Contact In Adult Rugby

The IRFU have announced a new series of TEE Sessions to support clubs and schools with on-field guidelines for their #ReturnToRugby journey.

These training, education and engagement opportunities will follow from the success of Tuesday’s #ReturnToRugby Webinar on Injury Prevention and a Safe Return To Rugby.

You can view that webinar and download some of the resources outlined in the strategic support section of our website.
