The Bracknell under-16s girls' rugby team has set a challenge to collectively swim, row, cycle, run, and walk the 591km distance to Amsterdam.

The aim is to raise funds for their match against a Dutch team in February next year, making them the first Bracknell girls' team to tour abroad.

The squad includes girls from Bracknell, Wokingham, Wargrave, Shinfield, Windsor, and Ascot.

The squad have completed 326km of their goal through park runs, the Wokingham Lions swimathon, rowing along the River Thames, and walking around the area.

This effort has helped them raise £945 on their JustGiving page.

An additional £250 was won for being the fastest youth team in the swimathon, and a cake sale and clothing collection contributed another £360.

Daimon Evans, head coach, said: "This is such a great opportunity for girls at Bracknell as we are the first women and girls team to play abroad.

"The team we will be playing have been selected from across the Netherlands, so will be a national line-up.

"They are determined to get there and are using this to also help spread the word to other girls that rugby is a great sport to play."

The squad finished second in the Hampshire, Oxfordshire, and Berkshire League last year, and will now compete in the National Cup.
