Scapular Rugby – Yann Lesgourgues: “Post-Rugby is an important subject that is rarely discussed at the end of a players' career”

Asked by France Blue Girondeour scrum half, Yann Lesgourguesreturned to the importance of preparing well for your post-career: “ Post-Rugby is an important subject that is rarely discussed at the end of a players career. I had a somewhat traditional school curriculum. Afterwards I quickly stopped because I started playing in the Top 14. But I've been seriously looking into it for a year and a half. I have a few projects in mind, even if nothing is defined. I'm still working on it because it's important and I know a lot of people who quit without preparing anything and who went into a bit of depression. They got a little lost. I think it's really important. There is a lack of support to be able to find a base in daily life. When you stop playing rugby you are young in active life. It's hard to make the transition, it takes a beating, but you have to prepare for it, it's important. Around me, I still have guys who are retired, who had a professional goal and who are doing very well. It made me want to prepare for the end of my career so that it is smooth and I can flourish there.« .
