Rugby Club Support Guide to covid-19
I hope you are all managing to cope with the current Covid situation and that your respective clubs are managing these unique times as best as they can.
Attached is a publication from the RFU which may prove to be of some assistance, especially when we embark on our return to play activities for next season. One concern is that players of all levels will have had a far longer close season than is the norm and therefore the return to match fitness will not be as simple as may otherwise be the case.
A further and probably more prescient worry is the mental wellbeing of our club members. All of us are experiencing concern over loved ones, personal isolation and the absence of the social stimulus that underpins our game. The mental well- being support is just as vital as the physical conditioning as we move towards the next season. As RugbySafe reps I would urge you to keep all the communications avenues as open as possible so that potential concerns can be identified early and managed before they become serious.
As ever, if there is anything I can do to help, please don’t hesitate to call.
