AFTER a lifetime of relentless lengths in the pool, Georgia Taylor wanted more than solo pursuits and found rugby league.
Five years on from ditching swimming, the 28-year-old has taken to her new sport like a duck to water and made big strides on dry land.
Taylor helped York Valkyrie win the Women's Super League for the first time last season and also made a try-scoring international debut for Wales last October.
A flying winger, the PE teacher is just as pacey on the pitch as she was in the pool.
York begin their new season with a Challenge Cup tie at Sheffield on Sunday.
And Taylor, who didn't switch sports until aged 23, can't wait to crack on.
