Cape Town (CNN)When South African women’s sevens player Babalwa Latsha took up rugby a few years ago it wasn’t just a new sport she had to master.
To begin with she had concerns about her safety.
“There would be times where I would like to go for an evening run, but I can’t because I live in a township,” the 24-year-old tells CNN of her area of Khayelitsha, based in the Western Cape section of Cape Town. “It’s not the safest thing to do.”
