Capital Rugby Union (CRU) is advising all players and clubs participating in the CRU 2022 competition to complete and finalise player registration details by this weekend.
This weekend the competition enters Round 4 of matches and all required details must be submitted to the CRU Executive by Friday 18th April, 2022.
Any player listed on this register is eligible for selection in CRU representative teams and restricted to only playing for CRU representative teams ONLY.
This means that selection for other provincial unions is prohibited.
The Executive stressed that it is vitally important that all clubs clearly explain to their players who may have been identified or selected for another provincial team that the reason for this ruling is for the following reasons:
- CRU competition rules prohibit players from playing in or competing in more than one competition. This includes representative duties.
- Players who compete in our competition must remain loyal to our competition when competing at national competition level.
- CRU wishes to encourage player depth in all provinces. By CRU players joining other PU teams, this does not provide a fair representation of player depth in the country.
