The Women's 6 Nations has smashed glass ceilings all over Europe, the players are growing in status, coverage is improving & the following continues multiply.These players & teams stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before.40 years ago, in the Dutch city of Utrecht, the very first Women's Rugby International took place between the Netherlands & France.I had the honour of speaking to the captains of both teams! Liza Groenendijk & Judith Machado.Neither woman had any idea what the future held, but they loved the game & wanted to play at the highest level possible. They are the TRAILBLAZERS with AMAZING stories to tell.I LOVED speaking to them, I hope you enjoy listening. Happiness is Egg ShapedSupport our show with the Acast Supporter feature - https://supporter.acast.com/happiness-is-with-bruce-aitchisonCheck out the Happiness Is Egg Shaped Merchandise store - https://bit.ly/HIESstoreRegister for Fill Your Boots for FREE - https://bit.ly/HIESFYBSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/happiness-is-with-bruce-aitchison.
