RugbySafe

At Warminster RFC player safety is priority in all we do following the RFU's guidlines below.

RugbySafe is the RFU’s overarching player safety and wellbeing programme.
It puts player welfare at the heart of the game and covers how to organise and manage the game so that it is played in a safe and enjoyable manner.

We know that prevention is better than cure. RugbySafe provides guidance and resources for all rugby activity organisers on what needs to be in place. We recognise that mental and physical wellbeing go hand in hand with developing a positive player welfare culture and keeping the rugby community healthy.

Clubs and all organisers of rugby activities have a responsibility towards the health and safety of players, staff and volunteers. Appropriate measures for training, first aid provision and equipment should be in place to ensure that rugby union is delivered to the highest standards in a safe and enjoyable environment.

Being RugbySafe is the ‘Ultimate RugbySafe’ resource.

It provides an overview of the different areas of RugbySafe to ensure you provide a safe and enjoyable playing environment. This guidance is deemed best practice and it recommends that clubs and other activity organisers implement these practices and policies where possible.
