Episode 4 – Growing the Girl’s and Women’s Game
This episode is hosted by Richard Bradley interviewing Rachel Comyn-Doyle and Claire Collins.
We will discuss the great positives of the rapid growth in girl’s and women’s rugby at Rochdale and within the North. But we’ll also talk about how we can sustain that growth and what might be key challenges we need to tackle.
Whilst this is a serious conversation, we also want to have a bit of fun and bring out the community and friendship that has fuelled the growth in the game.
