{"id":55245,"title":"It begins!","description":"Rugby clothing brand Fifteen Players launch post","content":"<p>Hello! We are super excited to launch a new rugby brand for casual wear. But there are a few things to get off our chest first\u2026 a little toe dip in the water of our story.<\/p><p>Number 1: Do you like like rugby, and are you any good? We love rugby! <em>Ahem<\/em> Of course we\u2019re good! The muscles look at a line-up of hungry twenty to thirty-somethings and say, \u201cAlex\u2026 you might want to rethink this.\u201d But I\u2019m excellent at ignoring them and I have an excellent rapport with the doctors at the local A&amp;E.<\/p><p>Number 2: How knowledgeable on rugby are you? I definitely listen to the odd podcast, subscribe to Rugby World, support a UK premiership team and attend a few matches every season with my son, but I couldn\u2019t ref a match, still don\u2019t know all of the rules fully and there are players out there who I should know, but I don\u2019t - but I do like discovering them! Oh, and I help coach my son\u2019s local team.<\/p><p>Number 3: Do you have any real experience in design? Yes! I went to art college which is where I played most of my rugby and won almost none of my games. Art college teams are <em>very<\/em> strong, because historically art colleges attract hordes of exceptional athletes and big, buff, agile men and women who like to get physical.<\/p><p>Anything else? Not really. Not at the moment. But we\u2019d love to hear from you! We\u2019re keen to create a fun brand of equality and sustainability, with an ethically conscious core, promoting the men\u2019s and women\u2019s game equally. So subscribe to our monthly newsletter, and find out what else is coming soon.
