There are also two webinars on coaching the new age bands and bursaries for girls’ rugby training. You can find all the information ahead of 2022/2023 within this communication. Sport England Governance and Business Transformation support for rugby clubs The RFU is working with Sport England to develop a programme of governance and business transformation which will be supported by the Government Winter Survival Programme. The main focus of the programme will be for levels 1-6 (Gallagher Premiership, Championship, National, Regional 1 and 2) and Allianz Premier 15s clubs to help them develop their governance activities and business operations. It is hoped that the learning and tools developed as part of the programme will have wider benefits for all clubs moving forward. 3.
