The Old Boys University women’s rugby team bared all for the calendar this past Sunday, according to stuff.co.nz. The hop was to prove that women rugby players are not masculine and unfeminine.
Success.
The idea behind the photo shoot may have been to promote women’s rugby to women, but the calendar may attract a slightly different audience.
Bekki Abernethy — seen making an impressive catch in the photo — had a great sense of humor and humility throughout the shoot, but one thing caught her off guard.
“I’ve had a few grandmothers say they’re going to buy it for their grandsons for Christmas,” she said, according to the website. “Instead of the usual sock and tie combination, they get a naked calendar!”
In other news, I’m still expecting an ugly sweater from nana.

“I’m proud of this football team. I’m proud of our defense. I’m proud of our offense. We will fight our tails off to be the best team we can every single week. If that’s not enough for you then go find another team to cheer for. If you’re not proud of this team then you don’t know football.”
