"We are pleased to announce that a one-off £600,000 fund will be made available to member clubs to support return to play protocols and to assist with the purchase of equipment or adaptations to premises/facilities that may be required as a result of CV-19 related social distancing measures," a WRU statement read.
"The £600,000 will include the central procurement of items such as PPE with grants awarded to individual clubs on a criteria and assessment of need basis.
"All clubs will be eligible to apply for a grant for qualifying expenditure within the scheme and the amounts awarded by the WRU can potentially be increased further by external funding sources."
"Following a period of consultation via the recent Club Impact Survey, the findings identified clubs were protected for a minimum of six months,” said WRU Community Director Geraint John.
"Consequently we have now outlined our intention to further financially support our clubs to prepare to return to rugby and remain at the heart of our communities.
"A Facilities Working Group has been established including club representatives to ensure that we continue to listen and support our community game in line with Welsh Government guidance.
"Further details on what types of expenditure will be supported and how clubs can apply for the grant element of the scheme will be provided shortly."
The £600,000 fund will be in addition to the rugby and development grants for the 2020/21 season, with details on those grants due to be announced shortly.

Is everyone mistaking the authors championing of a dieing side as being some criticism of NZ rugby or something? Why are all these comments mentioning MP is full of kiwis lol.
The way I read it is that he thinks this is a team of ABs (well it is, true), but it should have very few making the new grade this year. I don’t think he’d have written it any different has it be the Blues that went their and did it, it would still be all about what he thinks as his AB contingent not being strong enough.

I clicked a malicious link and lost 43,800 USDT from my account, leaving me hopeless. Luckily I found Crypto Pandemic Hunter, who were professional and reassuring from the start. They explained their process of tracing my funds and using their contacts in the crypto space to freeze and recover assets.
The recovery process was detailed and included tracking my USDT across different wallets. They used blockchain tools and worked with security teams to flag the stolen funds. Their communication and persistence were impressive, and after weeks of work, they recovered all my funds. I highly recommend Crypto Pandemic Hunter to anyone in a similar situation; they truly help victims of crypto theft.
