Whether in sport or business, being better informed and better advised will lead to better outcomes. Through the extension of this sponsorship, we are looking forward to seeing the women’s rugby team continue to evolve and drive high performance through expert coaching, cutting edge analytics and of course the determination and commitment of the players.
