DUBLIN HOSTS IRPA CONFERENCE

24th November 2017

Category: Represent

In November, all of the rugby player associations throughout the world were invited to our offices to partake in the IRPA conference. Over 40 representatives were in attendance for the duration of the meeting in Dublin.

Two items were predominant on the agenda. Firstly, the Executive Board of IRPA officially signed the agreement recently secured with World Rugby. The other important aspect was in linking the various Player Development Programmes together. This proved to be an ideal forum to share and learn how the respective associations support both their current and former players in areas of mental wellbeing and education, while insights were provided as to the management of databases and how players are tracked once they move abroad.
