Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media

Inclusion in Sport: Discussion

Ms Mya Doocey:

Definitely. Irish rugby players have changed to navy shorts but it was previously white. Somebody said she was playing a match for Ireland and all she could think of was her period and if she would leak through. Competing at that high level, it is crazy that is what they have to worry about. A swimmer said she could not train on days 1 and 2 of her period because her period was so bad she could not swim.
