IRFU Return To Rugby Guidelines For Clubs
Contact Stage Guidelines
Clubs who have completed the COVID-19 Safety Planning stage of the IRFU’s Summary Roadmap may proceed to the Contact Stage from July 20th.
Update guidelines are now available for this stage, which can be accessed at https://bit.ly/Contact-Stage.
The purpose of these guidelines is help clubs mitigate against injury prevention after a prolonged period of restricted training while maintaining a safe and responsible approach to COVID-19 risk management. A graduated return to contact is central to this approach.
