In addition to all these activities, spectators will be able to see former great names in rugby such as the founder of WateRugby Yann Delaigue, Émile Ntamack, Jessy Trémoulière, Vincent Clerc, Julie Annery, the Armitage brothers and Fanny Horta.
This year more than ever, the WateRugby organization is invested in the ecological transition. This is why the Rugby French Flair and Green World Team associations will both be present in the village to raise awareness among rugby fans.
