The IRFU & Rugby Development

The IRFU is committed to the development of rugby and rugby players of all ages.

In this section you will find information on our Long Term Player Development model, which provides an integrated framework to facilitate the development of rugby players at all levels of participation and experience.

You will also find detailed information on Coaching, Fitness, Skills & Drills and Conditioning.

The IRFU would like to thank our sponsors in these key areas for their support of the various initiatives to promote the game of rugby and the well-being and development of our players.
