Grievance Procedure

If you feel you have a grievance with your respective squad, you must inform the team manager in writing within 7 days of the incident/event occurring.

The team manager will respond, in writing, within 7 days acknowledging receipt of the complaint.

The team manager will endeavour to deal with the complaint within 11 days of the original complaint.

However, if you feel that your complaint has not been dealt with sufficiently and the aforementioned process has been exhausted, it then becomes an issue for the WRU senior development officer, whose decision is final.

Failure to comply with any of the above could result in a player being removed from the squad.
