The Activate Rugby Academy was a brilliant experience and I enjoyed every minute of it. I decided on the programme as it would give me the best opportunity to progress my rugby, which it did in many ways as well as introducing me to some lifelong friends. One of my highlights of college was the once in a life time opportunity of going to Japan to play in an international 7s tournament. The programme allowed me to continue my ambition of playing a high level rugby whilst completing my academics. Due to the close knit environment, I became more confident which ensured I could put my best foot forward when making new connections in the rugby world. Since leaving college, I have gone onto study at Brunel University which is linked with Trailfinders Women who play in the PWR. My college rugby experience has enabled me to take this next step in my rugby journey seamlessly and I look forward to what the future holds!
