Meet England Women’s Rugby League squad.
With the Women’s Rugby League World Cup just days away, this documentary meets some of the women battling it out for a place in the England squad.
Without exception, they’re an inspirational bunch, not least because Women’s Rugby League remains an amateur sport, which means the players have to juggle their rugby commitments with holding down jobs.
From HGV driver Chantelle Crowl to working mum Amy Hardcastle, who supports teenagers with their mental issues, they work hard and train hard, all desperate to be part of coach Craig Richards’ plans.
