Wendy Young is a historic sports broadcaster, play-by-play commentator, and the founder of Your Scrumhalf Connection (YSCRugby), the premier media platform for women’s rugby globally since 2006. A trailblazer behind the microphone, Wendy made history as the first female play-by-play commentator for Major League Rugby (MLR) and part of the league's first all-women broadcast team. She serves on the World Rugby broadcast team and is the lead play-by-play announcer for Women’s Elite Rugby (WER), the first professional women’s rugby league in the United States. Beyond rugby, her versatile commentary extends across professional American football, Track Racing and NCAA softball. Before taking the broadcast booth, Wendy spent decades in elite sports as a USA Eagles pool player, top-tier referee, and coach. Her lifelong dedication to sports governance and broadcasting has earned her inductions into three Halls of Fame. Through YSCRugby’s signature Women’s Rugby Rundown show, podcast, and digital channels, Wendy reaches a deeply engaged, passionate audience of sports fans, athletes, and decision-makers across the US and globally.

How do you measure influencer marketing ROI when half the numbers social media gives you are vanity metrics? It is the question brands ask us most, and it came up again when I joined Massimo Marinelli on the Berkida Ventures Podcast.
