Any injury that meets the below criteria must be reported by a team representative, as well as the referee (if they were appointed to the game by the WRRA):
- Concussion or Suspected Concussion (including Blue Card)
- Any player who will be out of rugby for 3+ weeks
- Any player hospitalised due to their injury
Either download the form (pdf), complete and email us or click on the online (pdf) link below.
We in partnership with NZR want to ensure that anyone involved in rugby - players, coaches, refs and family - know what to look out for and what to do when they suspect a player has sustained a concussion.
We all have a role to play in recognizing, removing and helping to manage concussions.
