... that in 2008, Scottish rugby union player Lisa Martin captained the side to their first victory in Ireland for 12 years? Source: [1] "Martin played a part in the Scotland Women’s best Women’s Six Nations finish in seven years in 2017 and their first away win in twelve year’s versus Ireland at Donnybrook in 2018."
- ALT1:... that Scottish rugby union player and former captain Lisa Martin has also played club rugby in England and France? Source: [2] "Last season, Martin fulfilled a life-long dream of becoming a full-time rugby player when she signed for French side, Lille Metropole Rugby Club Villeneuvois, but it shows her class that Saracens head coach, Alex Austerberry, jumped at the chance to sign the former Scotland captain when she became available."

article is new enough, long enough, no obvious copyvio. QPQ checks out too. Both hooks are fine, although I prefer the first one. The only thing here for me is that "the side" is unclear. You may need to include "international" in there after "Scottish" or "national" before "side" to make it unambiguous what "side" she was captaining. Fair enough? The Rambling Man (Stay alert!
