Jaelei Meyer earns spot on Team Canada Rugby Women’s U20 roster
Photo submitted
Jaelei Meyer has found success on the rugby field being named Rookie of the Year on her university team at St. Francis Xavier in 2013, while finding success on the team in 2014 as an Atlantic University Sport (AUS) Conference All Star. Her university team, pictured here, were also 2014 AUS Champions as well as 2014 Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) Champions. Her grit, determination, and head for the game have now earned her a spot on the Team Canada Rugby Women’s U20 roster.
After years of dedication and hard work in the extremely physically demanding sport of rugby, local athlete Jaelei Meyer (20) of Carlyle, daughter of Rick and Amanda, has earned a spot on Team Canada’s U20 women’s team. Meyer, who graduated from Notre Dame in
2013, will be going into her third year at St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia this fall where she competes in both rugby and hockey. Meyers is taking a Bachelor of Science, majoring in Geology with hopes of finding a career in New Zealand following convocation. The tough competitor, Meyer may have came to Rugby a little bit later in life, beginning in grade 11 – taking on the sport because it was suggested she
find something to do in the off season of hockey – but, athletic and with a good head for sport she quickly found great success. “Originally I went to Notre Dame to play hockey and it was recommended that I play another sport; I really liked what rugby had to offer,” Meyer explained.
