Injury update: Julia Schell

We can confirm that Julia Schell has sustained injuries to her anterior cruciate ligament in last weekend’s fixture against Saracens.

The fullback has had a scan that confirmed the injury, and will now prepare for surgery and rehabilitation with the club.

The Canadian has started every game so far for Trailfinders this season, registering 2 tries and 2 try assists in the campaign.

On Schell, Head Coach, Barney Maddison said:

“I’m absolutely gutted for Jules. Off the back of a really strong World Cup and an impressive start in the PWR, she was in a really rich vein of form.

“There is no doubt that with her attitude and mindset, she will come back stronger from this, and we will all support her every step of the way.”
