Participants ranged from all over Malaysia and also reached regional participants from Hong Kong, Indonesia, Iran and Botswana (Rugby Africa). The week included a number of Level 1 Courses with an emphasis on the Female Trainer & Educator courses. Having four of World Rugby’s Female Scholarship recipients in attendance for the Superweek was not only inspiring to participants but also a testament to World Rugby & Asia Rugby’s commitment to growing the Female workforce.
The week was rounded out with an ACTIVATE Educator Acquaint for both new and existing Educators and a large turnout of local participants across Coaching, Medical Strength & Conditioning and Match Officiating Level 1 courses, with quality assurance conducted for existing Educators.
Special thanks to the MRU & UPSI for hosting the World Rugby ACTIVATE Superweek!
