Wellington Rugby to conduct review

Wellington Rugby has begun the process of setting up a review into our recruiting, contracting and player monitoring processes and protocols.

Recent publicity around the case of Wellington age grade player Losi Filipo has given our organisation cause to look closely at how the matter was handled.

In that regard we are seeking a strong independent voice to lead the review and will establishing robust terms of reference for that review.  

Wellington Rugby is open to change, committed to doing things better in the future, and determined to ensure the organisation follows best practice should any similar cases emerge in the future.

There will be no further comment until the review process has been completed.
