February 02, 2017

share

Rugby Canada has announced a new Webinar Series dealing with the World Rugby 2017 Global Law Trials and the Measures to Limit Contact to the Head. The 2017 Law Application Guide Webinar Series aims to educate the rugby community on these new law initiatives and provide clarity around specific changes brought forth by World Rugby.


There are six areas specifically covered; front-row replacements, advantage, touch, penalty tries, time keeping and contact to the head.


Much of the series will focus on the important issue of World Rugby’s zero-tolerance approach to reckless and accidental head contact, otherwise known as Measure to Limit Contact to the Head. It is the goal of this initiative to eliminate reckless tackles and further strengthen World Rugby and Rugby Canada’s commitment to injury prevention. The two new categories carrying penalty offences and yellow and red card sanctions will be a major topic, and it is Rugby Canada’s aim to educate the rugby community in an attempt to ensure consistent application of these new initiatives.


You are strongly encouraged to attend the session live as there will be an opportunity to ask questions throughout the Webinar. If you are unable to attend live please contact your Provincial Union or Rugby Canada.
