Season 2 Episode 10 - Celebrity Knock On / Knock off. End of season battles
GrassRoots - Women's Rugby from the Roots Up
04/26/23 • 105 min
Welcome to Episode 10 of GrassRoots – Women’s Rugby from the Roots Up.
This episode covers the end of season fights for promotion, relegation and the various cup competitions.
Mollie and Goose are preparing for an (unsuccessful) attempt at getting to Twickenham and we welcome back Fiona Brunt.
Fiona gives us a great behind the scenes tour of life as a ref when teams are feeling the pressure and takes over the helm of the scuttled schooner of Knock on / Knock off - it’s a fascinating listen.
We have mini interview pitch-side with Cheltenham Tigers and finally manage to pin down ChezSez for a catch up with the usual mayhem.
Make sure you put August the 19th in the Diary for the next GrassRoots Festival at Avonmouth Claire’s Ladies! Ticketing information will be out soon.

GrassRoots - Women's Rugby from the Roots Up
01/23/24 • 59 min
Welcome to episode 15, Season 2!
In this much delayed episode we apologise profusely for our incompetence and use a load of lame excuses, then discuss actual rugby excuses, some better than others.
We wring our hands with misery at the terrible season we’re having, and think of ways to fix it, discuss mental health and generally look at where things are at in the game.
Halbro join us for a chat, and overall we try to get back on track!

Episode 9 - Initiations, rugby post childbirth, Diss Ladies & Chez has her hair done
GrassRoots - Women's Rugby from the Roots Up
12/12/21 • 99 min
Welcome to Episode 9 of GrassRoots, the only podcast exclusively focused on the grassroots women’s rugby game.
In this high tackle of an episode, we talk about initiations, coming back to rugby after having children and we welcome Karon from Diss Ladies to the podcast.
As Mollie was unfortunately unavailable to record due to ‘reasons unknown’, the episode is hosted by Nik Joyce, the first ever female chair of Crewe and Nantwich Rugby Club and gives us a fascinating incite into what it’s like having such a senior position at a club and still needing your mum to cut you out of your underwear.
We continue the 12 Fines of Christmas and loads more!
This episode is brought to you in partnership with Halbro, the leading manufacturer and designer of women’s fit sports kit.

Episode 4 - The Rugby Bus, Mollie's Injury and Sleaford Ladies
GrassRoots - Women's Rugby from the Roots Up
09/30/21 • 65 min
In this jam packed episode we discuss the aftermath of a match, being hit by the rugby bus and the usual segments.
Cherie visits Pim and Pam, Lou makes questionable cocktails and we look at how to grow the game.

Episode 11 - Christmas Social: The Aftermath, Kesteven Ladies and Cherie's accronyms
GrassRoots - Women's Rugby from the Roots Up
12/27/21 • 68 min
Welcome to the last episode of 2021!
In a rather tired and emotional (hungover) Episode 11 of GrassRoots, the only podcast aimed squarely at the grassroots women’s game we discuss the aftermath of the team Christmas Social, what makes a good rugby party and generally try to piece together the previous 24 hours.
We discuss a little bit of rugby, Cherie doesn’t know what AC stands for, and Jodie finally has a proper shower after a game.
We meet the fabulous Kesteven Ladies, hear all about their club and their plans for the season and ponder the origin of a 1-star review.
We draw a close to 12 Fines of Christmas, although Mollie hasn’t a clue what is going on, and Lou just really can’t seem to keep away from the brown stuff.
Overall, this is a very silly episode; definitely not one for the car with the kids in the back.
Thanks so much to all our listeners for tuning in over the last 11 episodes; we’ve absolutely loved making it for you. If you want to give (constructive) feedback, we’d love a rating or a review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
