Hayley Compton and Jessica Morgan share how sport helped them through difficult times.
Ahead of the Woman’s Hour Power List 2023: Women in Sport reveal, Anita Rani spoke to two women about how sport and getting active helped them through difficult times.
“When you have a stillborn baby, something really strange happens to you. Because people don't want to upset you, they don't say anything to you at all. They kind of avoid you. You become this really frightening person that people avoid, and that's on top of your grief.”“My friend used to be the captain of her rugby team and she said: ‘Why don't you come with me to training? We're not doing any contact because of COVID. We're not even picking up rugby balls.
“She would pick me up and I would cry in the car until I got on the pitch. Then I’d have to make my focus change from my grief to learning something new, where I was running around in the dark, getting covered in mud. And being able to take out your anger, it works wonders. Being able to tackle someone, run at them, tackle them, scream… That's what I needed. I needed that break to make me feel like I was normal, that I was accepted.
