Girls Rugby at Lymm Rugby Club was successfully launched this week with numbers exceeding expectations.
Dedicated girls training sessions commenced on Wednesday and will take place every Wednesday at 6pm on the rugby clubs Artificial Grass Pitch from now on, and every Sunday from 2pm till 3pm.
Head of Mini and Junior section Ian Cope was delighted with the response.
‘We were hoping for upto 10 girls attending and ended up with 20, across a full age range, from 4 years old to 14,’ he said.
‘This shows us there is real demand for Girls Rugby in the area and we welcome all who would like to join us’, added Ian.
‘We also recruited a mum, a former player, onto the coaching team, at the first session, which is exactly what we’d like to do more of in the future,’ added Josh Hadland who is heading up the Girls Rugby coaching team.
Players from Sale Sharks Ladies, Lizzy Duffy and Kendall Wandby also attended to get the coaching session off to a winning start.
