As mentioned for several weeks, the management of the French XV has established a charter in order to change the living environment of the French teams. Many changes will thus be made.
The environment of the XV of France has decided to tighten the screw. Yesterday, the day after the start of the Blues' rally in Marcoussis to prepare for the Autumn tour, the French Rugby Federation unveiled the “reinforced performance project for French rugby”. Here is the essential marrow.

First of all, the consumption of alcohol will be prohibited, particularly in performance venues, which means that this measure will apply both to the CNR of Marcoussis, but also in stadium locker rooms, which means that beer post-match will no longer be celebrated after the matches.

Also, the evenings will be closely followed. Those at the end of the competition will be organized in privatized places with “adapted security”, while the reception of people from outside the Blues group will be restricted. The idea is to welcome these people in the “common areas of the French team accommodation sites”.

Finally, graduated sanctions have been put in place for those who wish to disregard this charter. These range from level 1 and a “formalized reframing by the technical staff” to level 3 and “disciplinary proceedings”. The bonuses would then be impacted and may not even be awarded to a member of the French teams who will be sanctioned following disciplinary proceedings.
