If you're good enough, you're old enough
Another example of the way in which the RFUW's exacting and non-negotiable age restrictions are not shared around the world. And not just in smaller nations where there are not many players - New Zealand have a pretty flexible attitude as well as this story of this 14 year-old Georgia Mason, who plays adult club rugby confirms.
Last year she also played U19 rugby, despite being barely 13. A name to watch for at the 2016 Olympics, maybe.
The only age limit seems to be on appearances in representative teams - provincial or above. Other than that it appears that Georgia can play for any team she is good enough to play for.
