How much do we really know about Rachel Yankey the person? Do you want to hear the story behind England's recording-breaking cap holder and the incredible medal haul she has accumulated since bursting onto the scene in 1996? Now is your chance.... Rachel surpassed goalkeeping legend Peter Shilton's 125-cap record, set back in 1990, after skippering the Three Lionesses during their 1-1 draw against Japan at Burton Albion's Pirelli Stadium on 26 June 2013. As part of We Hustle's award-winning 'Nothing To Something' series, Rachel talks to Kick It Out about her family and upbringing in Queen's Park, how she hid her identity to be able to play football as part of a boys team as a small child, and what she would ultimately like to be remembered for.
