Naked female rugby team strip off for calendar to help raise money for breast cancer charity

 

Cheeky: The annual shots are being sold in aid of charity Coppafeel

A university’s women’s rugby league team have kitted off for a naked charity calendar.
The Liverpool team bared all for the third year in a row to raise money for a good cause.
Their annual shots are being sold in aid of Coppafeel - a charity which encourages and teaches women on how to check their breasts regularly to detect breast cancer in the early stages and, in turn, save lives.
Last year the girls raised more than £2,000 last year for Joining Jack, a charity which aims to raise awareness and money to fight DMD (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy), and for team costs.

“We couldn’t survive without it.
