Bluck earns Rugby League World Cup call from Wales
Hannah Bluck is set for international honours in a fourth sport, one of six uncapped players in Wales' squad for October's Rugby League World Cup.
Hannah Bluck, a rugby union player for Welsh side Brython Thunder, has been selected for the Wales national squad in the Rugby League World Cup. This marks her fourth sport where she has earned international recognition, following her senior honours in rugby union, junior recognition in football, and basketball. Ffion Lewis, another former Wales union cap, also joins the squad.
The 23-player team, led by Wigan's Bethan Dainton, will participate in pool games against England, Samoa, and Australia. Bluck's selection brings her alongside other uncapped players like Erin Williams and Paige Travis, who have previously played for England. Key additions to the squad include Canterbury Bulldogs skipper Tayla Preston, St Helens winger Sian Williams, and Warrington Wolves winger Hollie Brussels.
Agnes Wood, who helped York Valkyrie win the Super League Grand Final, is also included. The team will face their first match against England on October 17 at HBF Park in Perth.
