World Rugby plans to channel England’s energy at Euro 2022 by delivering a safe and successful women’s World Cup later this year.
World Rugby has vowed they “do not stand still” on the issue of player welfare amid claims that playing the sport has caused brain damage.
The first thing to do in conversation with Alan Gilpin, chief executive of World Rugby, the day after an extraordinary World Cup play-off is to celebrate Chile, qualifiers for the first time after beating the USA 31-29 in Colorado, 52-51 on aggregate.
Elite rugby players will face an increased minimum period of 12 days on the sidelines under toughened concussion protocols announced by World Rugby on Tuesday.
World Rugby chief executive Alan Gilpin has said no external groups caused it to change its return to play protocols for concussions that were announced on Tuesday.
World Rugby has increased the minimum time out of competitive action for players who have suffered significant concussion from 7 to 12 days, in a move welcomed by campaigners. The rule change, which comes into force on July 1, will mean that players will realistically miss two weeks of action because of the way the club schedule works, and that in international tournaments, they will skip at least one game.
Player welfare campaigners have welcomed World Rugby’s decision to extend the minimum stand-down period for most concussed elite-level players to 12 days from 1 July but have also called it “long overdue” and said it is “not the perfect solution” to the game’s ongoing head injury-related issues.
