Shari Onley on what you need to succeed

The stunning Shari Onley plays for the NSW Surge in Australia and the Chicago Bliss. You might also recognize her as 'Amazon' from Australian Gladiators TV!

Unfortunately Shari sustained a serious ACL injury playing for Chicago against Seattle in June 2014. Hope the recovery is going well and you'll return to the gridiron in 2015 Shari!

Now that tryouts are approaching, I'd strongly recommend anyone thinking of going to read Shari's post on what it takes to succeed in the LFL.

In addition to everything she says, you need to bear in mind the potential for serious injuries like Shari's ACL given that it's a full contact sport.
