Incredible moment for rugby in the UK! Increasing participation numbers particularly for women is growing the game in absolutely the right direction! As these numbers increase, it becomes ever important to provide a safe environment for all players to support this growth. 🏉

Always very interesting to observe the developments in this field! Tailoring the recovery process to the individual remains pertinent in the quest to manage concussion.

Rugby also boosts well-being – 47% of schoolboy players feel less stress, and 57% have an improved mood. (RugbySafe study)🏉

But these benefits only thrive when players stay injury-free. At Luca, our concussion management protects young athletes' physical and mental health

[Luca Health @Luca_Health]

Rugby builds more than strength – the RugbySafe study shows 69% of schoolboy players feel more confident, and 64% report better school performance! 🏉

At Luca, we’re making rugby safer with advanced concussion management, so young players can thrive on and off the field. #luca

Awesome to be back at Twickenham yesterday with @Luca_Health for the National Conference of Heads of Rugby in Schools. Great to reconnect with old friends and to make some new ones.

Very encouraging to hear a positive and upbeat message about the game.

Phil Beaumont, Head of Rugby at Northampton School for Boys, is an advocate for our services.

Modern concussion care in schools is vital to look after the wellbeing of students, and protect schools themselves. This is not a problem that is going away.
