A game of rugby is a lot like life.
There are ups and downs and you need a good team around you to help you navigate them. As England Rugby’s Official Legal Partner, we’re here to support the sport at all levels and to support you, whatever your situation.
A successful rugby team is full of highly skilled specialists, united by a single purpose. It’s the same for us - a wide range of legal experts working together to help you.
In our role as Official Legal Partner, we’re thrilled to be helping the RFU and its community clubs with their own legal issues. It’s also great to see our partnership help young players involved in rugby.
Supporting youth rugby
We know that the shift to adult rugby can be tricky for young players, particularly with coping with the increased demands of modern life. Finding the balance between studying and training isn’t easy. Neither is dealing with the unique and growing pressures on young people in the modern world.
So we’re working with England Rugby to help young players stay involved for longer and to help more people benefit from the values that rugby teaches. We hope that by helping these players make the next step, the sport can continue to grow in the years to come.
The programme:
- Will support over 35,000 14-18 year old players, with mentors across 750 clubs
- Aims to keep more youngsters interested in rugby, enhancing the retention of youth players
- Aids the transition for youth players through to adult rugby.
