Coach Harry takes on schoolgirl rugby team

Heartthrob Prince Harry is used to women squealing like schoolgirls in his presence, but joining a state school women’s rugby team for a training session was a first for him.

The 29-year-old royal played coach for a day taking part in a training session with a number of state school rugby teams in his role as Patron of the Rugby Football Union All School Programme.

Ex-England rugby star Jason Robinson joked with Harry that the team was looking for a new winger and wanted to test him out.

“I think I’m already past it,” the Prince joked.
