Early lifeRachel Taylor was born in Bangor on 13 June 1983.[1] She began playing rugby at the age of five, later describing her family as "rugby-orientated" since her father was a rugby coach and her older brother already played for a local team. Although she tried a variety of sports in her youth, she returned to rugby. Once her brother switched to playing association football, she focused on rugby, seeking to play for her national team.[1] She is trained as a Paraveterinary worker,[1] and gave the keynote speech at the British Veterinary Association in 2017.[2] Playing careerAs of 2017, her official Wales Rugby Union biography states that she is {{convert|1.75|m|ft}} tall and weighs {{convert|75|kg|st}}. She has been given the nickname "Tails" by her teammates. She made her debut for the Wales women's national rugby union team against Canada in 2007.[3] She was first named as captain of the team in 2012 for the Women's Six Nations Championship.[4] Taylor won her 50th cap for Wales when she played against Ireland in the 2015 Women's Six Nations Championship.[5] She has continued to captain her national team, including at the 2016 Women's Six Nations Championship.[6] She is also involved in encouraging women's rugby at a grassroots level, being the Wales Rugby Union coordinator for the RGC West area in North Wales.[7] This is in preparation for a transition from her playing career into retirement.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web|last1=Corbet|first1=Thomas|title=Taylor Carrying the Family Name at Women's Six Nations|url=http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/news/27452.php#.WScUTmjyvIU#JygEkP0LGAWLj3KS.97|publisher=RBS 6 Nations|accessdate=25 May 2017|date=6 February 2015}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Taylor, Rachel}}{{Wales 2014 WRWC Squad}}{{Wales Squad 2017 Rugby World Cup}}{{rugbyunion-bio-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title=Welsh rugby star to speak at BVNA Congress|url=http://mrcvs.co.uk/en/news/15762/Welsh-rugby-star-to-speak-at-BVNA-Congress|publisher=MRCVS Online|accessdate=25 May 2017|date=25 April 2017}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Rachel Taylor|url=http://www.wru.co.uk/19814.php?player=54286&includeref=dynamic|publisher=Wales Rugby Union|accessdate=25 May 2017}} 4. ^{{cite news|last1=Williams|first1=Mike|title=Bay rugby star Rachel will captain women|url=http://www.northwalespioneer.co.uk/news/119227/bay-rugby-star-rachel-will-captain-women.aspx|accessdate=25 May 2017|work=North Wales Pioneer|date=23 January 2013}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Wales Women's captain Rachel Taylor joins 50-cap club against Ireland as they chase Triple Crown|url=http://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/rugby/rugby-news/wales-womens-captain-rachel-taylor-8818596|accessdate=25 May 2017|work=Wales Online|date=11 March 2015}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Six Nations: Rachel Taylor to captain Wales Women's team|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/35303337|accessdate=25 May 2017|work=BBC Sport|date=13 January 2016}} 7. ^{{cite web|last1=Jones|first1=Liz|title=Rachel Taylor Issues Rallying Call on International Women's Day|url=http://www.wru.co.uk/eng/news/36152.php#.WScT92jyvIU|publisher=Wales Rugby Union|accessdate=25 May 2017|date=8 March 2016}} 7 : 1983 births|Living people|Female rugby union players|Welsh female rugby union players|Wales international rugby union players|Sportspeople from Bangor, Gwynedd|Women veterinarians |
