Rugby in Japan Vol.7, No.2

Ian McDonnell continues the newsletters from Japan. In this issue he reviews round 13 of the Top League, the final round. He looks at the changing scene of professionalism in Japanese rugby. From 2011-12 season there will be a 250 million yen salary cap for all Top League teams as well as a restriction of 6 foreign players. The economic squeeze tightens in Japan.
