GETTING REAL
WITH RUGBY
IN MEXICO
I am absolutely delighted to publish the very first guest
post for Mexico Retold. When I met Emily McCarthy a New
Zealander with the biggest, warmest smile you’ve ever seen,
and she told me that she was part of a women’s rugby team
at her University in Mexico City, I knew immediately that I
wanted to share her story with you all. Here Emily tells you
about how rugby helped her go from being an outsider to
one of the team! I hope you enjoy reading her story as much
as I did…
