Crystal Parsons, 42, caught the football bug following the Ottawa Redblacks. Last summer, the CFL team invited fans to a women's training camp to learn more about the game. Parsons participated, and "something about it got under my skin."
She was the first to sign up to play with the Rebels.
"Tackling makes me feel alive. At my age, I'm near premenopause and you feel like you want to hit things," Parsons said. "I've fallen in love with contact football."
