Emily Scarratt, England rugby international and World Rugby's current world player of the year, has been making use of her family farm to keep her fitness levels up whilst in lock-down.

Scarratt tells The Agenda's Stephen Cole that she hopes the pandemic won't put an end to the growing momentum of women's rugby. Indeed, she says it may even have the opposite effect as appetite for the outdoors and socializing will be higher than ever once the lockdown ends.

She also highlights that rugby is a traditional and prominent sport in the UK and Europe, with a close-knit community and will fight back post-COVID-19.
