UK-Japan News January 2017

England rugby Head Coach Eddie Jones has been asked to help with Team GB’s preparations for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, the BBC reported on 13 December.

Team GB would be seeking Jones’s advice based on his success, the fact his team will be competing in Japan the year before the Games at the 2019 Rugby World Cup, and the experience he gained as coach of the country’s national rugby team, according to British Olympic Association Chairman Sir Hugh Robertson.
