The Welsh Rugby Union 🏴 women are playing Scotland on Friday evening and they haven't acknowledge the game, announced a squad, published where we can watch it, had a player/coach up for media, literally anything. It feels like how teams treats their women's sides a decade ago.

📢Call for participants! 🏉Have you played women's rugby at an elite domestic (women's premiership) and/or international level in the UK? I would love to talk to you about the growth of the game since the launch of the Premiership Women's Rugby (& it's previous iterations) in 2017. 📩DM open


Sure there isn’t one other match you might be missing BBC Sport ? Visibility is key and how do we expect to help #growthewomensgame and give it the attention it so thoroughly deserves if we don’t even advertise it or make it easy to watch. Barbarian FC Rugby Football Union Irish Rugby
