The sister act hoping to guide the Netherlands to the Rugby League World Cup
The Netherlands didn't have a women's rugby league team until 2023 but now they're targeting a spot at the Rugby League World Cup for the first time.
Hoping to help them get there are the Kennedy sisters – Nicole, Jessica and Claire – who were born in Australia but are eligible to represent the Netherlands through their Dutch mum.
The sisters tell Sportshour’s Shabnam Younus-Jewell about what it means to be playing together and representing the Netherlands.
