Rugby Africa, as the first initiative of a regional association, has announced the launch of an “online” sports management training programme for women’s rugby managers from its member unions.
This training program is part of World Rugby’s women leadership development project in alignment with Rugby Africa’s strategic objectives.
Developed under the hand of RA Women’s Rugby Advisory Committee and Rugby Africa Women’s Rugby Manager, Maha Zaoui, the program will use interactive teaching methods where practice is combined with theory.
The deadline for participant confirmation has been extended to 18th September and the training will be spread over six months happening two days per month (Friday and Saturday) with the participation of prominent speakers from the MEMOS association and the testimonies of African and international experts from a rugby environment.
Participants of the program will apply, adapt, and transfer what they have learned in theory during training sessions and during workshop sessions, in their own unions through the realization of case studies.
Participants will be supported throughout their training by tutors (RA staff) whose final goal will be the preparation of a development project for women’s rugby emanating from their respective environments and includes all the modalities to guarantee its success.
