Better Together

During school holidays, a boy asks twelve year old Frida to play rugby league on his team. Frida can't believe it. Didn't everyone know that she was a type 1 diabetic?

No one ever picked her for sports, let alone rugby league. Frida accepts the boy's offer and has a try. To her surprise, she enjoys playing.

Frida wants to play more, but that's tough. She loses her breath after running for a few seconds. Exercising makes her blood glucose levels go weird.

Worse, no one else likes Frida playing rugby league. Her mother thinks it's too rough. Her best friend is annoyed, because it's only stupid sports. The big girls on the team say Frida is too small.

Who cares what they all say? Frida only wants to have fun. She's ready to try something different. What's wrong with that?

Yet it's not all about Frida. Rugby league is a team sport. She must learn how to fit in

That goes for the other boys and girls on the team, too. The only way the team will win is to become better, together.

Win-Win For The Win!
