Liz played on and off since 1998, but has missed the better part of a few seasons due to injuries and having to move to a rural area for work. In 2004 she was again injured (knocked off her bike, nothing to do with rugby!) but returned in 2005. Liz took a year off to have a baby (the sweet Dean) and returned to us in 2007 only to fall pregnant again! She's missed most of 2008 but is back now that young baby Zoe is managable!
