BHM: Charity Williams – From Childhood Dream to Olympic Medalist

As we continue our Black History Month series, today, we turn our focus to Charity, an Olympic rugby player whose inspiring story showcases not only her athletic excellence but also her commitment to creating space for future Black athletes.

Early Inspiration

For Charity, her Olympic dream began at 8 years old while watching the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Mesmerised by the performances of the athletes on her TV screen, she made a vow that she would one day become an Olympian. “At the time, I was a gymnast,” she recalls, “but as I got older, it became clear that being an Olympic gymnast wasn’t in the cards for me. So, I knew I had to pivot.”

That turning point came when Charity was in Grade 10. She had already been trying out various sports, but it wasn’t until a teammate from her wrestling team encouraged her to attend a rugby practice that everything clicked. “From the first day I stepped onto that rugby field, I fell in love,” Charity says. “It felt like all of my dreams were coming together.”

Finding Rugby and Rapid Rise

Charity’s passion for rugby grew quickly, and it didn’t take long for her talent to be recognised. After two years of playing high school rugby, and a standout season with Team Ontario, she was selected by Team Canada in 2013. This opportunity required her to move to Victoria to train with the national team—an opportunity she embraced fully, even completing her final year of high school there.

“Moving to Victoria at that age was daunting,” she admits, “but I knew it was the next step toward fulfilling my Olympic dream.”

Olympic Journey and Achievements

One of Charity’s proudest moments came in 2016 when, at just 19 years old, she was named to Team Canada’s rugby squad for the Rio Olympics. “I was the youngest player to make the squad, and when I found out, I cried through the entire meeting,” Charity reflects. “It wasn’t just about going to the Olympics—it was the realiation that my younger self, who once sat in front of the TV watching those incredible athletes, was now becoming one of them.”

At the Rio Olympics, Charity and her team went on to win the bronze medal. Yet for her, the most special part of that journey wasn’t the medal itself—it was the culmination of years of hard work, sacrifice, and a dream that never wavered.

Her Olympic story didn’t end in Rio. In 2024, Charity was part of the Team Canada squad that earned a silver medal at the Paris Olympics. “Winning silver was amazing, but it wasn’t just about the medal,” she explains. “It was about what we accomplished as a team. The challenges we faced and overcame together over the past three years made that achievement so meaningful. We inspired each other every day, and I think that was felt by everyone who watched and supported us.”

Future Aspirations

Looking ahead, Charity remains committed to her sport and to inspiring the next generation of rugby players. Currently, she plays for another of Kukri’s official partners; the University of British Columbia (UBC) and has her sights set on winning a national championship with her team. “Right now, I’m focused on enjoying my time at UBC, connecting with the team, and having a blast,” she says. “Of course, I’m also hoping for another Olympic run in the future!”

Beyond her personal goals, Charity is passionate about creating a more inclusive and diverse rugby environment for future athletes.

Reflections on Black History Month

For Charity, Black History Month is a significant time to reflect, learn, and listen. “For me, and for people who look like me, Black History Month is every month because I am who I am 365 days a year,” she says.

Rugby in Canada has made strides in diversity and inclusivity, but Charity is quick to point out that more work needs to be done. She reflects on her experience as the only Black player selected to Canada’s rugby squad at the 2016 Olympics. “I felt a huge responsibility to be a role model for young Black kids across the country. It wasn’t that there was a lack of talented Black athletes—there was a lack of safe spaces and opportunities for them to thrive,” she explains.

Fast forward to Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024, and Charity saw firsthand how the national team had evolved. “By the time we reached Tokyo and Paris, we had a much more diverse squad, and it made all the difference. Everyone felt seen, heard, and valued. That’s the rugby I want to see going forward.”

Championing Inclusivity in Rugby

As Charity looks to the future, she hopes to continue being a voice for change within rugby. “Rugby is such a beautiful sport, and the opportunities it offers are endless. But everyone deserves access to those opportunities,” she says. “We need to keep pushing for a sport that is inclusive, diverse, and safe for all athletes, regardless of their background.”

With her Olympic medals, inspiring journey, and vision for the future, Charity remains a trailblazer both on and off the field—a powerful example of resilience, passion, and the importance of representation.

Black History Month Athlete Focus: Kiki Idowu

As we continue our Black History Month series at Kukri Sports, we’re proud to showcase athletes who embody excellence and perseverance in their respective sports. Today, we spotlight Kiki Idowu, an athlete who has not only excelled in rugby but is also committed to uplifting others and forging new paths for future Black athletes.

From Hockey to Rugby: Kiki’s Journey into the Sport

Kiki Idowu’s journey to rugby wasn’t a straight path. Growing up, she took part in a variety of sports, from hockey to gymnastics, swimming, basketball, and athletics. But despite her success in many of these sports, she never felt truly fulfilled. It wasn’t until a former flag football coach suggested she try rugby that Kiki found her true passion.

Try it out, I think you’ll like it,” her coach had said. And five years later, rugby has not only become a sport Kiki enjoys, but one in which she has thrived. Despite her relatively short time in the game, Kiki’s progress has been remarkable. She’s represented Canada’s national teams at both the 15s and 7s level, and she’s played at the university level for the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds.

Rugby, Kiki says, has shown her that the hard work, goals, and natural talent she possesses all serve a greater purpose. And while she’s already achieved so much, she knows her journey is just beginning. “I have a long career ahead of me with more international appearances and more rugby to be played!” she says confidently.

Representing Canada on the Global Stage

Kiki’s rugby career is already filled with highlights. Most notably, this past summer, when she was selected to join Canada’s Under-20 National Team, which visited Cardiff, Wales, to compete against top international teams including England, USA, and Wales.

“We were considered the underdogs,” Kiki recalls, “but we came away with three wins and invaluable memories.” Representing her country and securing victories over high-level teams brought immense pride to Kiki and her teammates. “It was a surreal feeling, making your country proud and wearing that pride on your chest.”

This feeling wasn’t new to Kiki. She also earned silver with Canada’s Under-18 7s team at the Youth Commonwealth Games. Once again, they entered the competition ranked 4th and finished two spots higher, a testament to their hard work and determination.

For Kiki, these experiences have been about more than just the medals and wins. They represent the culmination of hard work, discipline, and the opportunity to show the world what she and her teammates are capable of.

Hopes for the Future

Looking ahead, Kiki has no plans of slowing down. She hopes to continue performing at a high level and push herself to overcome new challenges and set new goals. But beyond the personal accolades and triumphs, she hopes to give back to the rugby community that has given her so much.

“I want to continue growing as a player and a person so I can give back to rugby,” she says. Her future is not just about success on the field, but about building lifelong friendships and creating meaningful relationships along the way. And, of course, she wants to continue making her country proud as she carries the values of the Maple Leaf with her wherever her career takes her.

The Importance of Black History Month

For Kiki, Black History Month is more than just a celebration—it’s a platform. As a Black woman in rugby, she is keenly aware of her position as a minority, but she embraces the opportunity to lead by example.

“There is power in being a minority,” she says. “My actions can aid in paving the way for future Black rugby players.” Black History Month provides her with the chance to share her story, uplift other Black athletes, and engage in important conversations about inclusivity within the sport.

Kiki is passionate about ensuring that the next generation of Black athletes sees someone who looks like them excelling in rugby. For her, the month is about celebrating the joy of being Black, while also using her voice to inspire and lead.

Conclusion: Kiki Idowu, A Leader On and Off the Field

Kiki Idowu’s journey is one of determination, talent, and leadership. She has already achieved so much in her rugby career, and her future looks even brighter. As she continues to blaze a trail on the rugby field, she also remains committed to using her platform to uplift others and push for inclusivity in the sport.

This Black History Month, we celebrate Kiki’s successes and her vision for the future. She is not only an exceptional athlete but an inspiring role model for Black athletes everywhere. We look forward to seeing what she accomplishes next, both on and off the field.

Celebrating Athletes During Black History Month

As we embrace Black History Month, Kukri Sports is proud to recognise and celebrate the accomplishments of Black athletes, particularly those associated with our valued partners, such as England Athletics and Team Canada. Throughout the month, we will be publishing a series of stories that highlight the remarkable journeys and successes of these athletes, offering a platform for their voices, and highlighting the vital role Black individuals play in sports worldwide.

For Kukri Sports, Black History Month is an essential reminder of the power of representation and the importance of ensuring that diverse stories are told and celebrated. The athletes we will spotlight have not only excelled in their sports but have also become powerful role models for future generations, challenging barriers and driving change within their fields. By sharing their achievements, we hope to inspire others and contribute to a broader conversation around inclusion, empowerment, and the ongoing fight for equality.

Our wide range of partners align perfectly with our mission to support talent from all backgrounds. These organisations, dedicated to fostering diversity in sports, mirror our commitment to breaking down barriers and providing opportunities for athletes from underrepresented communities to shine. We’re excited to showcase their stories throughout this month.

At Kukri Sports, we believe that Black History Month is not just a celebration of the past, but also a powerful message for the present and future. It is an opportunity for reflection, education, and recognition of the work that still needs to be done to ensure equality in all areas of life, including sports.

“At Kukri Sports, we are committed to fostering a culture of inclusivity, and Black History Month gives us an important opportunity to celebrate the incredible contributions of Black athletes. Their dedication, resilience, and achievements inspire us all. Through our partnerships we are proud to share their stories, promoting diversity both in sports and in the wider community. This month is about honoring the past and building a future where everyone has the chance to succeed.” Andrew Ronnie, Group CEO, Kukri Sports

Ensuring the Highest Quality Control at Kukri Sports

At Kukri Sports, our commitment to quality control is unwavering. We understand that the performance and satisfaction of our customers hinge on the excellence of our products. To meet and exceed these expectations, we have implemented a comprehensive series of quality control procedures, ensuring every garment that bears the Kukri name upholds our stringent standards.

Fabric and Colour Consistency

The journey of quality begins with the very fabric of our garments. Before any fabric is approved for use, it undergoes rigorous testing by an Independent Testing lab. This crucial step ensures that the fabric weight, construction, and performance align with the advanced performance standards Kukri demands. This testing process doesn’t stop there; it continues throughout the production phase to ensure that these high standards are consistently maintained. Additionally, we meticulously assess fabric batches for shade continuity, ensuring that colours remain consistent from one batch to the next.

Precision in Sublimation

Sublimation is a key process in our production, and we take great care to maintain the highest standards. By collaborating closely with experienced suppliers, we ensure that all digital artworks are meticulously checked before printing. Initial run pieces undergo thorough inspections to verify that the final print colour and quality adhere strictly to Kukri’s specifications. This attention to detail guarantees that the final product is nothing short of perfect.

Logo Perfection

Logos are a critical aspect of our garments, representing both Kukri and our customers. Whether printed or embroidered, logos are shade matched to meet customer requirements or specified Pantone colours. We cross-match print and thread shades from factories worldwide to maintain this consistency. Moreover, we always seek physical approval from our customers for each logo before production commences, ensuring that their vision is accurately represented.

Fit Testing for Optimal Performance

A perfect fit is essential for the performance and comfort of our athletes. At Kukri, we conduct extensive fit testing using both athletes and fit models. This process ensures that our garments align with the desired size and proportions. We meticulously create and maintain all pattern measurement information and construction specifications, ensuring that each product is consistently made and fits perfectly every time.

Rigorous Factory Quality Control

Quality control at Kukri doesn’t end at the design and testing stages. Our factories carry out thorough quality control inspections during and after the production of finished goods. These inspections ensure that Kukri garments are free from defects, meet our stringent standards, and are safe to wear. Only after passing these rigorous checks are our products deemed fit for our customers.

At Kukri Sports, quality control is more than a process; it’s a commitment to excellence. Through our meticulous procedures and unwavering dedication, we ensure that every garment not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our customers. We take pride in delivering products that are not only fit for purpose but also embody the high standards that define the Kukri brand.
