Jules Le Bail, 34, was forced to retire due to vision loss but has remained in his hometown of Vannes and joined the staff of RC Vannes, a professional rugby club in France. After ending his playing career at a young age, Le Bail, a former hooker who previously played for La Rochelle, has taken on a new role with the team. He will work under coach Jean-Noël Spitzer, focusing on the defensive strategies of the professional team and supporting young players as they move up to the first team. Le Bail will reunite with his brother Clovis, 30, who joined RC Vannes this summer after playing for Toulon. Clovis's move to Vannes was not without challenges, but the family connection adds a positive note to the club's current situation. However, the team is facing a difficult season, as they currently sit at the bottom of the Top 14 league, the top-tier rugby competition in France, and have yet to score any points. RC Vannes released a statement announcing Le Bail's new role, expressing happiness at continuing his journey with the club. The statement praised his "remarkable career as a player" and emphasized the importance of passing on his experience to help develop young talent. Le Bail will work closely with Tanguy Kerdrain, who coordinates the support cell for young players transitioning to the professional team. Born in Carquefou, Le Bail spent his final playing days with RC Vannes before retiring. Now, he will help guide the next generation of players at the club. This weekend, the team will host Pau at La Rabine, hoping to finally start their season with a win.
