ZRU was given the greenlight to resume training and competitive rugby activities yesterday (Wednesday) after months of inactivity due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

“This is just the first step of a number of steps that needs to be conducted for us to be able to see rugby being played again. We have handed over officially to a medical Committee who are going to draft measures and procedures that need to be followed during the return of rugby. This will then go through the board for approval, ” he said.

Jani said he is not sure when exactly rugby action will resume.
