Vagabonds hoping local game can grow in the future
Efforts are continuing to 'get the message out there' and inspire the next generation of people to get involved in women's rugby on the Isle of Man.
That's according to Vagabonds Ladies Rugby Club which will begin the new season in the Women's NC1 North West this weekend.
2023 marks the 25th anniversary of the ladies' club - they remain the only female team on Manx shores.
Player Ella Goodwin-Jones, and team coach Jack Caine, say there's opportunities to get involved in the game competitively and socially:
Meningitis B vaccination scheme to be rolled out on-Island
Balthane Roundabout plans on hold until 2027/28 as costs rise
Port St Mary lifeboat launched to rescue stricken fishing vessel
