    You've seen the men, now it's the ladies turn "Women's Rugby"

    Posted some shots from a couple of rugby games and now I want to share some shots from a women's game I shot Sunday. It rained on & off during this game.

    Thanks, I enjoyed watching and shooting them in action. Some of these girls can really get into the thick of things and were pretty rough.

    Excellent Photos. They show the intensity and the desire for the game from these athletes.

    I like #3 the best. The look on her face and the tape flapping as she runs is great.

    Another super series of photos Jim. These girls seem to have the same grit as their male counterparts.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
