Napanee’s Britt Benn is getting ready to take to the field with Canada’s women’s rugby sevens team at the Tokyo Olympics.
Their first game takes place tomorrow evening, July 28th, at 8:30pm ET against Brazil. Game two takes place in the early hours of July 29th at 3:30 am ET against Fiji and game three that evening at 8:30pm ET against France.

Isbester went on to say, “we’re all with you in spirit Britt. Play well, and be safe.”
