Eilidh McMillan

“There's nothing quite like the feeling of scoring a try. It's like all the hard work and pain is worth it for those few seconds of pure joy.”

Eilidh grew up in the Scottish highlands, where she first learned to play rugby with her brothers and their friends. She quickly became a standout player, earning a scholarship to study and play at a university in Edinburgh. Upon graduation, Eilidh decided to take her game to the next level and moved to Berlin to join a club there. When she's not on the field, Eilidh can be found exploring her adopted city or perfecting her bagpiping skills. She's currently training hard for the upcoming season, hoping to lead her team to victory.

What do you love most about rugby?

I love the camaraderie and the team spirit. It's like having a second family.

What do you miss most about Scotland?

Definitely the scenery. Berlin is great, but there's nothing quite like the rugged beauty of the highlands.
