Rugby, Medicine, and the Importance of Upholding Traditions

International Partner - Last month, the Faculty of Medicine of Sorbonne University's Petits Cochons rugby team travelled to Ireland to continue a proud tradition. For thirty years now, medical students from Sorbonne University have played an annual rugby match with their Irish peers from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. Raphaël Cochelin works at Sorbonne University in logistics, and is the coach of the Petits Cochons. Hello, Raphaël. You have just returned from Dublin, where your team played against the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. How was the match? -   - Raphaël Cochelin: The game dictated a very high level, both technically and physically, with both teams fighting hard and with lots of emotion. The Irish proved better in the decisiveness of their actions, and it made the difference; they came away with the win.
