Former England women’s rugby captain calls out the sport for being asked to do ‘free’ events

Former England women’s rugby captain Catherine Spencer has called out different groups for asking her to do different public speaking events for free.

Spencer, who was the England captain before Sarah Hunter took the role, openly called out many groups who have asked her to do presentations and public events without a fee.

In the message, which she tweeted out, she said she was ‘fed up’ with being asked to do events for free.

The message she put out was greeted with support from many former female players who all appear to have suffered from the same problems in rugby after they retired.

Women’s rugby

Women’s rugby is making serious pushes to improve inclusivity in rugby. However, it is clear that there is a still a long way to go when we see former players like this calling out different groups for stunts like this.
