All Teams must comply with the rules and regulations. Your attention is drawn to RFU Regulation 9.3

9.3 All clubs and those involved in arranging any rugby activity:

must complete a risk assessment and ensure there is an appropriate level of immediate care and/or first aid cover, and equipment provided for that rugby activity as determined by such risk assessment.
must have access to a telephone to ensure that the emergency services can be contacted immediately when needed and ensure there is clear vehicular access for an ambulance or other emergency vehicle; and
are strongly encouraged to comply with the RugbySafe First Aid and Immediate Care Provision Guidelines.

It is mandatory that all clubs must have completed a First Aid Risk Assessment to ensure there is an appropriate level of cover for the rugby activity taking place.

Those clubs that haven't done this can do so here: https://www.howdengroup.com/uk-en/england-rugby-insurance/risk-assessment-tool

All teams will be required to register all First Aiders in GMS so that they can be validated. Failure to do so will result in the fixture being reversed if the opposition have validated First Aiders.

A validated First Aider must be present at the club where and when the match is played for each team (preferred); or just the home team (Minimum requirement).

Each team is required to identify to the opposition the validated First Aider(s) before the match starts.

It is up to the home team to organise a suitably qualified referee apart from the final.
