From starting out with the U8s and U10s, she eventually moved up to the U14s where she has been the head coach for the past 3 years. She had the opportunity to play provincially when she was 16 and gain more experience and learn more about rugby. Playing provincial also allowed her to learn about other coaching styles. On top of this she began referring and also obtained her coaching certification through Rugby Ontario. Last summer she worked for Rugby Ontario as a Community Rugby intern which allowed her to share the beautiful sport of rugby in elementary and middle schools in Mississauga. Further, she has been playing on the Brock Varsity women’s rugby team for the past 3 seasons.
