Six Nations chief Morel to leave

Six Nations CEO Ben Morel will step down at the end of the 2022-23 season after five years in charge.

Morel joined Six Nations Rugby in 2018. He secured a large investment through a partnership with CVC capital partners, guided the tournament through Covid-19 and launched the Autumn Nations Cup.

He also signed a multiyear title sponsorship with Guinness for the men's Six Nations and brokered the first-ever title sponsor, Tiktok, for the women's championship.

Morel said he wanted to "tackle other personal and professional projects”.
