Name: Connie Olwit
Occupation: Medical Doctor
Date of birth: 25/10/1983
Dr Connie loves rugby but she never got a chance to play it so she decided to become a ‘rugby’ doctor. While still a medical student at Makerere University she joined the Uganda Rugby Medical Society (URMS) attached herself to Impis – the university rugby team – where she alternated between dancing on the sidelines cheering her team on and taking care of the player’s injuries. Last year, URMS assigned Dr Connie to the Lady Cranes’ and she thought that her work had become easier. However, she was surprised to discover that there is no difference in the injuries between male and female rugby players and that women rugby players are just as pig headed as male rugby players. During the Lady Cranes’ training sessions Dr Connie devotes her time to dragging protesting injured players off the pitch and taping their ankles together so that they cannot move. Dr Connie wishes that she had more time on her hands so that she could do weight training to make her task of handling the players a lot easier.
