New Zealand Super Rugby Teams Complete Live Draft Online
Published
Five New Zealand Super Rugby Pacific teams recently took part in a live draft to complete their wider training groups. Instead of meeting in person, the teams joined a meeting on Microsoft Teams to choose their players.
The draft is an important part of the process for teams preparing for the new season. Wider training groups are larger squads of players who train with the main team and can be called up to play when needed. By completing these groups, each team can plan its squad and prepare for the competition ahead.
Some people believe the draft could become something bigger in the future. The system used in this year's draft may offer new ways for New Zealand rugby to choose and develop players. However, the article does not give details about any future plans, so it is not yet clear how the process might change.
The live draft shows how New Zealand rugby is adapting to new ways of working. As teams continue to prepare for the season, fans will be able to see how the draft system develops and whether it becomes a bigger part of rugby in New Zealand.
