Rugby is for Girls - in Ashfield!

Womens Rugby

Women's rugby union is a sport identical to the men's game with the same rules, same sized pitch, and same equipment. However, it has a history which is significantly different, due to various social pressures, and the self-image of rugby union in general. As a result, this history has been largely hidden until comparatively recently, although the game is gaining a higher profile thanks to international tournaments and financial investment.

Jo Dawson from Ashfield Rugby Club has written to us, to tell us about a big push to get Women's rugby established in Ashfield, so if you are female and want to improve your fitness? try something new? have some fun?
