The #IamEnough campaign hasn't gone unnoticed- a thread
It started with the launch of Ireland Rugby’s bespoke women’s jersey not featuring any members of their women’s team. #IamEnough https://www.telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/2020/08/28/irish-womens-jersey-fiasco-sad-indictment-international-womens/

Wasps Ladies player, @FlorenceW94 took to twitter to raise her concern about the launch of the kit. #IAmEnough https://twitter.com/FlorenceW94/status/1297155751635492865?s=20
Shortly after, women and girls from grass-roots to international level flooded social media with empowering images of themselves in their rugby kit. #IAmEnough https://twitter.com/EllieBoatman/status/1298924831338094592?s=20
Messages of inspiration were appearing all over social media #IamEnough https://twitter.com/RobynWilkins10/status/1299033408165810176?s=20
Yet, this isn't the first time athletes have spoken out on this.
"We have to redefine what it looks like to be a woman. You can be a strong woman,” said Mica Evans from @Waspsladies

This movement has just started and as @fi_thomas writes,
"It matters because women’s rugby globally is growing at a rate of 28%. It matters because, in this country, participation in the female game at grass-roots level is accelerating"
