In partnership with LooseHeadz, the Official Mental Fitness Partner of MLR, and Onrise, the Official Mental Health Provider, 8 LooseHeadz Ambassadors, including MLR staff, referees, and athletes from across the league, volunteered to lead efforts to #TackleTheStigma and uplift their communities from the inside out. By starting conversations and offering support, they’re helping build a stronger, more connected community, on and off the field.
The LooseHeadz mission is to place a mental health lead, “LooseHead”, at every rugby club around the world, and provide them with a toolkit of resources to support players’ mental fitness.
