In addition to her success with Surrey, inside or outside centre Caitlin travels from Horsham to play for her club side, Esher and has also represented London South East Division this season. Before school each morning Caitlin trains with a 10km run.
Collyer’s principal, Dr Jackie Johnston added: “We are incredibly proud of Caitlin’s outstanding rugby achievements. She is an extremely popular and talented student who is a credit to Millais School, Collyer’s and Horsham.”
