Woman Behind The Defence"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><em>\u201cThe Caesars have a huge opportunity to win the division this year and I am enjoying being part of the coaching team, and bringing some new ideas to the defensive side of the ball.\u201d Laura Moore, 2023 <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Having played both codes of rugby, Union with Nottingham\/West Bridgford, and League with the Nottingham Outlaws, Defensive Coach and GB International, Laura Moore, found a home when she switched from Rugby, to American Football, and now, she\u2019s lending that experience, to the Nottingham Caesars.<\/p>\n<p>As preparation for the 2023 campaign gets underway, the Caesars begin their battle for promotion at home to the Sheffield Giants, on 30 April, we caught up with their Defensive Run Game Coach ahead of the new game, to chat about her journey, her time in the sport, and the role in which women do play, both then, and now.<\/p>\n<p>Born in Mansfield, she, like most of us, played numerous sports at school and, as life progressed, soon began playing Rugby; work would take her south, to the nations\u2019 capital, however, American Football soon took hold, a little over a decade ago, where she would become one of the early trailblazers for the women\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c(British) American Football, it\u2019s had a kind of stigma attached to it, be it geographical, financial, hence why it\u2019s taken its time to progress,\u201d explained Laura, as she spoke of the rise of the sport on British soil.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do need more coaching staff, and the women\u2019s game, yes, it does need to be looked at more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI spent a long time with the Birmingham Lions (approx., seven years, 2013-19), and they have a great programme there so, although the sport is well run, it needs to be about a lot more than just the university programmes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPersonally though, I\u2019ve been lucky, and it\u2019s been great, especially to have been involved from the start, even though most of us playing then were rugby players.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere has been a good uptake though, and participation has been great.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI guess, the only fear, as with a lot of clubs, is that the sport becomes more diluted and, in my opinion, it\u2019s probably best not to have too many teams in the same area, in close proximity to each other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me though, I used to play offense, and scored a few touchdowns, but I was getting sick of being the hunted,\u201d she laughed, \u201cso I became the hunter instead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having made the first ever GB team, near a decade ago now, in 2013, Laura would captain her country against Spain, whilst being seen to go on and play at both European, and World Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Even now, having spent time coaching GB Women at the 2019 Europeans, Laura, just last year, returned to playing and has since been picked by GB to play in the upcoming international qualifiers, against Sweden, and Germany.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s been plenty of highlights for me,\u201d continued Laura,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWinning silver, in Spain (2015), and playing in Canada, at the worlds, two years later.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was at the Lions from the start (2013-19), and Jo Kirby, she did a fabulous job with that team, winning championships, and that\u2019s helped towards the boom in which we\u2019re seeing now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMyself though, now, I\u2019ve coached at the University since 2018, and, when I came back this year, I wanted to try something different.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hadn\u2019t really put the pads on though for what, four years say, but the IQ level, it goes a long way, and you often know as to where the ball is going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the Caesars now both training, and playing, at the David Ross Sports Village, at the University of Nottingham, you\u2019d be hard-pressed seeing beyond them, not only raising their A-Game this coming season, but taking that final step towards both winning the championship, and gaining promotion.<\/p>\n<p>Granted there\u2019s the small matter of the Birmingham Bulls and Chester Romans, Northants Knights and Sandwell Steelers, and the Sheffield Giants, to circumnavigate between late April and late July, but the drive, the vision, the will to succeed, is there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Caesars, they\u2019re my local club and it\u2019s nice to be able to give something back,\u201d added Laura.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d seen the progression at Uni, and the only place I hadn\u2019t been was the adult side, so here I am.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year, for the Caesars, and with Leicester (Falcons), it was, maybe, just a step too far and there\u2019s no mugs out there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re just about there though, and we\u2019ve brought in the extra couching staff, doubled up on positions, and attracted new players, so that they, alongside a good, four or five, experienced heads, as well as moving things to university, will help us, on so many levels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Promotion in the mind of Moore, and the Caesars, is paramount to the progression, and is a key component to the future, of the club as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>For Moore however, she\u2019s looking forward to seeing how things do progress, both in a coaching capacity with the Caesars, and playing, for her country, with plenty of games in both in which to, hopefully, enjoy, and deliver, valued success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMoving forward, I\u2019ll see how things progress this season, from a coaching perspective,\u201d concluded Moore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut, I\u2019ve also got some games playing with GB to look forward to, with the Euros being played in a league format.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got Sweden to play in April, then Germany in May, as well as, I believe, a few friendlies later in the year, then we have Spain, and Finland, next year, to look forward to as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As part of the Nottingham Caesars set-up, their 2023 BAFA NFC1 South campaign will see them play the following dates (all home games to be played at the David Ross Sports Village, University of Nottingham)<\/p>\n<p>30 April vs Sheffield Giants (H); 7 May vs. Sheffield Giants (A); 14 May vs. Birmingham Bulls (H); 21 May vs. Sandwell Steelers (A); 4 June vs. Northants Knights (A); 11 June vs. Sandwell Steelers (H); 18 June vs. Northants Knights; 2 July vs. Chester Romans (A); 16 July vs. Chester Romans (H); 23 July vs. Birmingham Bulls (A).<\/p>\n<p><img  title=\"\"  alt=\"Peter-Mann The Woman Behind The Defence\"
