Rugby: Women
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what support her Department is providing to Premiership Women’s Rugby clubs.
Answered by Stephanie Peacock
The Government monitors the financial situation of rugby union closely and continues to work with the RFU, PWR, and the wider sport sector to support the ongoing sustainability of elite and community level rugby union.
We are working to drive a Decade of Change in women’s sport and we are using the Women’s Sport Taskforce to drive progress across the sector. The Women’s Sport Taskforce was launched at the Women’s Rugby World Cup and seeks to understand and tackle challenges facing women and girls in sport from grassroots to elite.
