Girls strip naked for calendar to raise money and awareness of women's game

A ladies rugby team has stripped off to raise money and awareness for their women's game. 

The Ladies Rugby Club proved they are game for a laugh by leaving very little to the imagination for their 2017 calendar.

The calendar, which sees the team pose for a number of rugby-themed shots included lineouts and scrums, is available from the club's website for just £10.

Team member Claire Crompton said:

“It’s meant to be an empowering, body confidence sort of thing. 

There was no photoshopping involved and all images include curves, cellulite – the lot. 

All the ladies came away from the shoot feeling pretty confident. 

We’re certainly not supermodels, but we had fun and hopefully we can raise some money and the profile of women’s rugby. 

It all come about as a way of fundraising for the ladies team. We have managed to get a few sponsors on board as well which has pretty much paid for the printing.”
