Player Safety

World Rugby Certification

The Belleville Bulldogs RFC prioritizes player wellbeing and safety above all else. All of our coaches are trained through World Rugby in injury recognition and management through the Rugby Ready certificate. We encourage all parents and players to take some time to get certified as well. Click here to access the Rugby Ready certification page.

Rowan's Law

Our club is also in strict compliance with Rowan’s Law, a new law that was passed in Ontario in 2018. It was implemented to help protect people who play sports or games in schools, and also help teachers, parents/guardians, and coaches learn about preventing concussions. It also provides helpful information and guidelines for managing concussion symptoms.
