What are les Mercredis du Rugby?

The objective: Through this prevention operation, the RATP group aims to promote appropriate behaviors on public transportation, relying on rugby and its values of respect, teamwork, and sharing. We juggle between the rules governing a rugby field and those that apply in public transportation!

This year, the RATP group is opening this operation online to all middle schools in Île-de-France.

On the agenda:

  • Discover the incivilities on public transportation through rugby and the comic book series "Rugbymen."
  • Prepare with your class a "Haka of Civilities." This challenge aims to involve participants in an educational project while allowing them to develop their social skills and self-confidence. The Wednesdays of Rugby promote respect for others through the creation and performance of a Haka of Civilities.
  • Win with your class a rugby kit (10 balls, 15 bibs, and cones) to discover the practice and create memories around shared values.

Register your middle school and participate in the 17th edition of les Mercredis du Rugby by filling out this form (registration valid only for middle schools in Île-de-France).

The RATP Group and Rugby

The partnership established in 2005 with the French Rugby Federation (FFR) has strengthened the ties between the RATP group and this popular team sport. Solidarity, respect, collective dynamics, and conviviality: the values of rugby are also those that unite RATP group employees on the field.

The RATP group is the Official Carrier of the FFR and Supplier of the French National Rugby Team (XV de France). We also transport foreign teams during the Autumn Tour.
