Welcome to RUCK\u2019N\u2019ROLL!<\/span><\/p>

Founded in 2023, we provide rugby clothing with the aim of celebrating female rugby, increasing the visibility of women\u2019s sport, making female players feel connected and like they belong.<\/span><\/p>

I\u2019m a 15-year-old girl who has grown up playing sport my whole life, and I\u2019ve played rugby since I was aged 8. I understand the challenges that young girls face when playing in teams where the majority of players are boys. I knew from the age of 8 that rugby was the sport for me but I\u2019ve not always felt welcome on the pitch. The way rugby made me feel when I played well was enough to make me not care about some boys complaining or refusing to play with me just because I was a girl. It made me more resilient, and made me want to show them why I was there and that I was better than they thought. I always knew that I could do everything they could - and more. With RUCK\u2019N\u2019ROLL, I want all girls to have and share that confidence, so they know they are important and can follow their dreams as well.<\/span><\/p>

It wasn\u2019t always so easy for me - I never had the role models that women in sport have today. It was really hard to watch women\u2019s rugby either in person or on TV when I was younger. Throughout my time playing rugby there have been issues with struggling to find women\u2019s specific kit, which I still find doesn\u2019t ever fit me quite right.<\/span><\/p>

I have created RUCK\u2019N\u2019ROLL because I want to make sure that girls and women in sport know they are important, are welcome, should be visible, supported and celebrated, and that they aren\u2019t alone. I hope my range will give all women and girls the confidence to play their sport, show off their skills, and celebrate being a female athlete.<\/span><\/p>
