She has always taught me to try my hardest and never give up, even in difficult situations.<br \/>\nFavourite rugby memory: playing in my very first tournament in grade 10 in BC. I was finally starting to understand how the game worked, and I had an absolute blast.<br \/>\nWorst rugby memory: losing 3 consecutive city championships and placing 2nd in grade 10,11 and 12.
