At Yate Rugby, we pride ourselves on fostering a community of dedicated coaches, players, and volunteers who embody the core values of pride, positivity, and progression. One such individual is Liz Guatieri, our dynamic Under 10’s coach, a passionate Yate Ladies player, and the First Aider for the men’s team. Liz’s love for rugby runs deep, and her energy is contagious, driving not only our younger players but also the club as a whole toward growth and success.
A Coach with Vision: Shaping the Next Generation
Liz has a wealth of experience, having coached at the Under 12’s and Under 13’s levels, and she’s now thrilled to "own" the Under 10’s age group. She has inherited a group of young, enthusiastic players brimming with skill, and she’s excited to mould them into a great rugby team. Her enthusiasm for the game and commitment to her players is unmatched.
In her words, "It’s amazing to see the talent and energy in these kids. They come to training with excitement and are ready to learn, and I’m eager to help them grow as players and as a team."
Passion for Women’s Rugby: Leading by Example
Liz doesn’t just talk the talk; she walks the walk. As an active player in Yate Ladies, she’s a strong advocate for women’s rugby. Her passion is clear both on and off the field, as she promotes the sport at every opportunity. Liz is committed to showing girls and women that rugby isn’t just for the men’s teams – it’s for everyone.
"Women’s rugby is growing, and I love being part of that movement," Liz says. "At Yate, we’re building a strong foundation, and I’m excited to see where we can go as a club."
A Triple Threat: Coach, Player, and First Aider
Not only does Liz dedicate her time to coaching and playing, but she also supports the men’s team as their First Aider. Her versatility and commitment to the club is a testament to the spirit of Yate Rugby. Whether on the field coaching or providing crucial first-aid assistance, Liz embodies the club’s values of community and teamwork.
Join the Yate Rugby Family
We’re lucky to have Liz as part of the Yate Rugby family, and her passion is inspiring our next generation of rugby stars. If you want to see her in action, come down and watch the Under 10’s train or play on match day.
