11: Increasing Participation Shoulder Charge - A Rugby League Podcast

- Rugby
Currently, there is not enough players playing Rugby League. Part of the reason the RFL issued Elite Academy licences was to tackle this very subject. But while doing that, they also removed Elite status from Castleford, Hull KR and Bradford. They have now u-turned on this, of course. But part of the reason was a need to protect the community game and the fact that not enough quality players were being produced. But have the Rugby Football League gone about this in the right way? On the show this week I speak to Chris Dearing of Hull Dockers ARLFC to answer that very question. There is also all the action from the weekend in Rugby League.
