Ffion Bowen

 * ... that Ffion Bowen took up rugby union due to the closure of her local netball club, and 18 months later was called up to the Wales women's national team?

 * Symbol confirmed.svg The article is 1613 words, so it is long enough. It does include inline citations. I think that the hook is good, but that it could be spruced up a little bit to highlight the fact that within only 18 months she had begun playing on the Wales Women's National Team. I think it could even be made a bit shorter too if you chose to make that the focus. The sources look reliable. It is written from a neutral point of view. It would be nice if there was a photo on the page, and since she is young and still playing that shouldn't be too hard to find. In the future the article could be expanded to include more of her early life (even though she is still quite young) since the article focuses mostly on her rugby career. Doesn't look like there are any issues with plagiarism. Hook is cited in the article. Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 22:55, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
