- Rugby is a sport of all types of sizes.

If you look at other sports, most sports, they all have one body type.

Rugby literally has all types of sizes and you can still be MVP.

Any type of girl can join rugby and gain that sisterhood and confidence.

You're all sisters on the field playing against each other, having a great time.

- Rugby has changed my life a lot.

When I first started playing rugby, I wasn't as talkative, social.

I was kind of shy, so I was like, oh, I'm just gonna keep my head down and do what drills we have to do.

But now, if you ask any of my teammates now, they'd probably tell you I'm no longer like that.

If anything, I am the one welcoming the newer girls and trying to help them on the side.

I'm a little more vocal, especially on the field, I'm a lot more vocal.

I think it gives young women more confidence, a big confidence boost.

- I feel like girls tend to show their feelings more.

So it's like more of an open, comfortable space for girls to be, like, vulnerable and also just be themselves too.

Kind of just brings that confidence out.

- I think it shows that girls can do anything that boys can do.

It just shows how much strength they have in themselves.

We're all young, which is a really cool thing.

'Cause as we grow older and being together, we'll be able to learn more about each other.

We do joke around a lot.

We do like mess around, but we also stay on top of everything.

We stay focused when the coach needs us to.

- I wanted to coach rugby just because I feel like my high school experience when I first started wasn't the best.

So when Lau gave me the opportunity to come help these high school girls, I was like, yeah, let me make it better for them 'cause mine wasn't that great.

- It's really fun.

It's, like, I don't know, you're with a whole group, a whole group of girls your age, so you can relate to them.

You can talk about a lot of things.

Like, it just feels nice.

You guys can just, like, trust each other.

They really are a real sisterhood right there.

- Rugby means the world to me.

It's one thing that I lean towards.

Anytime I'm feeling down on myself, rugby motivates me.

Any aggression that I have in me, I can put it on that field and know that I can just leave it there and not take it home with me.

- It's just an escape from reality for a little bit.

And you know, even going to just practice with the girls and getting, you know, getting to be around that energy.

- If I didn't find rugby, I feel like it wouldn't have given me all the sisters that I have.

I have three sisters, two older, one younger, but outside of my own, like, siblings, sisters, I have a whole 20 sisters that I can call.

You joining a team and being able to make more sisters on the field that have your back all the time, I feel like that's very important.

Especially nowadays for girls, they need someone to talk to.

They can always come to rugby and build that sisterhood and be able to lean on someone else.

- [Malo] It helps women unite together, and to build that sistership that we have for one another.
