PARIS – French clubs will boycott next season’s European club competitions including the elite Heineken Cup over a conflict involving England’s Rugby Football Union (RFU) and Premiership sides, the national league (LNR) said.
The LNR said in a statement issued late on Tuesday that an internal dispute between the game’s governing body in England, the RFU, and the Premiership had led to uncertainty over the future of the competitions and it therefore had decided to pull out French clubs. Nampa-ReutersNampa-Reuters
