Preparing for when restrictions ease and clubs can return to rugby.
Get Your Shirt On is a series of workout sessions led by former England players and aimed at the 6-18 age grades, but adults are also welcome to join in the fun and fitness. Ugo Monye, Danielle Waterman and Danny Care have taken it in turn to put viewers through their paces.
With community rugby currently at Stage A on the Return to Rugby Roadmap, it’s important for players to continue to stay active, even if it’s from home.
We also have online work out sessions led by England Rugby Men’s Pathway Athletics Performance Manager Robin Eager. England Rugby Prepare to Play home workouts.
Lockdown can take its toll on people’s mental health, with anxiety levels rising and many feeling isolated without their normal support network provided by club communities and team environments. Please check in with your members and team mates to make sure they are ok and that everyone knows about support available.
