How, despite the popular success of the 2023 World Cup, the French Rugby Federation (FFR) found itself with a €19.6 million hole on its hands, and why, by trickle-down, French rugby as a whole will never see the millions announced rain down since the result distributable to its benefit is more than ten times lower than the projection established in the application budget? How could the financial results of the hospitality programs (-€35.7M) and Campus 2023 (-€15.9M), this apprentice training center wanted by Claude Atcher, have slipped to this extent?
