Get in Rugby – Europe making an IMPACT at the European U18’s

18/04/2014 - 19/07/2014

  As part of the Impact programme in collaboration with the European U18 Championship, the Polish Rugby Union has been using the tournament as an opportunity to grow the Game in the region of Poznan. 

Mass participation projects were already underway prior to the tournament and during the tournament Get into Rugby - Europe “Play” activities were arranged around matches. As a result of the program around 3750 new players have been introduced to Rugby in 241 classes in 58 schools around 17 towns in the region. The Union will look to build on this Impact post tournament and measure the success of the growth later in the year. For more information on Get into Rugby – Europe please see www.irbgetintorugby.com.
