RFC Los Angeles take giant stride to create best performance department in Major League Rugby.

RFC Los Angeles will use Lumin Sports to elevate its performance department ahead of its second Major League Rugby (MLR) season.

While the dust settles on its debut 2024 campaign, RFCLA has decided to make the Australian athlete management and S&C software a key part of its performance ecosystem ahead of MLR25.

RFCLA Director of Performance, Lucas Baistrocchi, said Lumin Sports will help the club achieve its mission of providing the best performance environment in the league.

‘’Lumin will help us take a massive step forward towards our mission and bring synergy to all departments within our organization,’’ Baistrocchi said.

‘’The load monitoring tools, medical record keeping, and integrations with other software used throughout the league make this platform a must.’’

‘’On top of that, the scheduler & custom questionnaires allow our commercial and performance teams to be aligned so that we prioritize player welfare and present the very best product we can to our great fan base. ‘’

RFC Los Angeles becomes the third MLR team to make Lumin Sports a key part of its operations.

They join the San Diego Legion and NOLA Gold who both made playoffs in 2024.

Lumin Sports Chief Executive Officer, Ben Tripodi, said more teams are beginning to realise the benefits of having one platform to manage athletic performance, team operations, medical management, and strength & conditioning.

‘’Having everything in one place saves time and ultimately money, meaning coaches, managers, and athletes can spend more time and resources doing what they do best,’’ Tripodi said.

‘’More and more elite organisations like RFCLA are taking advantage of this edge which puts them ahead of their competition.’’

‘’We’ll work diligently with RFCLA to make sure they can achieve their mission of providing an elite performance environment.’’

RFC Los Angeles joins National Lacrosse League (NLL) teams the San Diego Seals and the Las Vegas Desert Dogs to implement Lumin in the past month.
