Kingston athletic therapist travels to Rugby World Cup

"This year, there is a Kingston connection to the Rugby World Cup. Carla Brash, Certified Athletic Therapist at the Kingston Athletic Therapy Centre, has been working with the national team for the past four years, travelling everywhere from Fiji to New Zealand to Belgium, as well as all over Canada and the U.S. Brash is responsible for the assessment and treatment of acute injuries, as well as pre-game taping and strapping, immediate on-field First Aid and post-event recovery and treatments.

"There is a lot of work to do and most days are 12-14-hour days, however, it is a very rewarding job when all your hard work pays off and we qualify for the Rugby World Cup," says Brash.

Over the years, she has developed a real love for the game of rugby and remarks that she has been working up to this tournament since the first game she ever covered eight years ago."
