It’s common for athletes to train the fundamentals regularly… For a tennis player, this can mean hours honing their technique on a forehand, backhand and volley. Basket drills, cross-court rallies, etc. However, many players ignore one key component. The chaos. The unpredictability and the variability of sport. Training in a way where you have to be versatile and adapt to the point as it plays out… Responding to each decision an opposition makes while they try and make your life difficult. By its design, sports can be chaotic, unpredictable and ever-changing. Great players are prepared to adapt… to make do… to find a way. #adaptability #versatility #sport

Mitchell Marsh's Celebration sparks debate on social media This picture surfacing Mitchell Marsh placing his feet on the World Cup trophy flared a fierce online debate. While some applaud it as a celebratory gesture, others criticize it, citing concerns about ego and attitude. MOST IMPORTANTLY, is it a real picture or morphed? What is your say! P.S. - The power of social media lies in its ability to magnify both appreciation and criticism, creating a platform for diverse opinions. #cricket #iccworldcup2023 #cricketworldcup2023 #australia #worldcup2023

Rugby has a lot of potential in the United States. I’ve seen how much growth this sport has underwent in the past 5 years! But how long does the sport have before it implodes? Major League Rugby is at a crossroads and the majority of the league teams may already be in vulnerable positions. We need to band together as a league to find solutions because it isn’t a one-team-solution thing. This requires the best and brightest minds in all aspects of this sport in order to find the best way forward. Some thoughts from my end? 1. More strategic partnerships between MLR teams with regional grassroots clubs. 2. More emphasis on regional club academies. 3. Alternative routes other than College Rugby which already limits great players that won’t/can’t/don’t get into colleges. I’m no expert and far from me to criticize the efforts already being put forward by the current stakeholders, but we need to be more strategic and innovative if we want to sustain the “game played in Heaven” here in the US of A.

A little late to this, but a thoroughly interesting read from Roger Mitchell about the future of professional club rugby and the idea of a LIV-style super league (as also discussed by The Good, The Bad & The Rugby). There is no question that the club game is struggling financially at present, and there is already talk of Saudi investment in several Premiership clubs. So, would a LIV-style super league with club teams based across the world work? One can certainly see the commercial appeal - who wouldn’t love to watch the likes of Antoine Dupont, Beauden Barrett and Cheslin Kolbe getting drafted into the same team - but might it undermine the existing club structure and the talent development opportunities it entails? If it does happen, you would imagine that it won’t be without a significant legal battle (see, for example, the legal disputes over LIV Golf, the European Super League and the ice skating breakaway league). This would raise some fascinating legal questions about World Rugby’s regulatory framework and competition law. The recent decision of the CJEU on the European Super League case, which emphasised the need for access to the market for organising sports competitions to be governed by transparent, objective, non-discriminatory and proportionate criteria, would be particularly relevant. A more detailed blog post on this coming soon… In the meantime, what do you think about the idea? #SportsLaw #Rugby #LIV

Here we are again for a new season of the #RugbyEuropeChampionship, gathering the 8 best European teams not taking part in the 6 nations. The likes of Georgia, Portugal, Romania or Spain will take on their europeans counterpart from Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and Poland. "Os lobos" will try to confirm their impressive performance at the Rugby World Cup by winning for the first time the competition. But the (multi) title holder Georgia won't let it go so easily, and they are still the big favorite of this competition. Romania will have at heart to rejoy their fans after a bitter outing during the World Cup. With a new management led by David Gérard (Frenchman, former Portuguese assistant coach), they already worked very hard to show a different facet of their skills. Below this World Cup trio, Netherlands and Spain will battle it out to join the semi-finals of the competition, while it will be a bit more difficult for Belgium, Poland and Germany, but who knows ? Beware for the least inspired of those teams, as the last from the cumulated ranking of the two last REC will be relegated immediatly to the Trophy division ! Worth noting as well that Rugby Europe upgrades its standards on the #playerwelfare front, with for the first time this season the implementation of the Head Injury Assesment (HIA) protocol on the Women's Rugby Europe Championships ! The Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish and Dutch women athletes will all benefit from the HIA. Hats off to Rugby Europe Chief Medical Officer Antonio Ferreira for this achievement, only possible with the joint support of World Rugby. Good Luck as well to those teams in this competition, which features for the first time 4 teams with the promotion of Portugal at this level. Let's finish this introduction by a fun fact: did you know that out of the 400 rugby players registered for the Men's competition, a bit more than 100 are playing in France ? Top 14, Pro D2, Nationale, Nationale and Fédérale 1, the Ligue Nationale de Rugby and the FFR - Fédération Française de Rugby are the playing ground of more than 25% of the REC contingent ! The competition kicks in tomorrow ! check it out here ➡ www.rugbyeurope.tv Rugby Europe #REC World Rugby
