TRAINING ARRANGEMENTS – LATEST GUIDANCE

As a result of the latest Government regulations the WRU has outlined that only fitness, ball skills and touch activities will be possible within a training session. In addition, the numbers allowed to participate in one age group will be limited to 30 but the cohort will need to be divided into groups of a maximum of 15. I.e. if there are 28 in a session it will be necessary to work in two groups of 14 and 14.

All age groups will undertake training in a designated part of the field. Players will need to enter/exit in specifc locations. Each designted area will have a disinfection/sanitation station and all children will be expected to sanitise their hands before starting and finishing training.

This note from the WRU summarises the arrangements in a simple visual:
