Swimming with Sharks: the Sale Sharks podcast

Women's sport: with Rachel Taylor, Stacey Copeland and Gavin Makel

We're talking about women's sport in this special International Women's Day episode of Swimming with Sharks.

Host Mark Chapman chats to Sharks' Women's Performance Lead, Rachel Taylor; Stacey Copeland, who represented England at both football and boxing, playing in an FA Cup final and winning a Commonwealth title in the ring; and Gavin Makel, the Managing Director of Manchester City Women's Football Club, about what different sports can learn from one another.

Rachel and Stacey tell Mark what they had to overcome to play the sports they love, how things have changed now and what impact male allies can have, and Gavin explains why City's women's team works so closely with the men's team and what impact that's had on both squads.

Plus we get to know Sale Sharks Women and USA prop Nick James with a little help from fellow Eagle Katana Howard.
