USA Rugby Training and Education launches new Spanish courses

USA Rugby’s Training and Education department is pleased to announce the addition of Spanish language courses to be offered for coaching and referee clinics starting this October. A Level 1 Officiating course and a Level 200 Coaching course will be held Oct. 8 in Weston, Fla., at the Weston Community Center. These courses will be fully presented in Spanish by World Rugby Educators. The courses run from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, with lunch provided.

In addition to joining more than a dozen other training and education courses currently offered by USA Rugby, these courses will be the inaugural classes offered in a language other than English. USA Rugby recognizes the need to reach out to underserved populations within the rugby community and these courses open a pipeline for members who have not had the opportunity to participate due to existing language barriers.
