Rugby Development Continues Across Province
6th November 2020 By The Editor
While rugby matches and contact training sessions take a break under the current Level 5 restrictions, Munster Rugby Development staff continue to work with clubs and schools across the province hosting non-contact skill development games and activities.
With COVID-19 Health & Safety Plans in place, clubs and schools can work within government guidelines to continue as a hub for physical and mental wellbeing for school aged children.
Non-contact sessions can be run within a pod of 15 including coaches and COVID-19 Club Compliance officers.
This week saw a number of staff work closely with volunteers in the Kerry based clubs of Castleisland RFC, Corca Dhuibhne RFC, and Tralee RFC.
Participation Programme Co-ordinator Ray Gadsden and Rugby Development Officer Euan Gee work with the Corca Dhuibhne U18s squad.
Club Community Rugby Officer Brian O’Dowd works with the Tralee RFC U16s players and coaches.
