Kennedy Cherrington is deeply connected to the NSW Origin, a sentiment reflected in her choice to feature a childhood photo with an Origin ball in her sports journal.
This journal chronicles her journey of overcoming a knee injury that kept her out of the game for eight months.
Despite being sidelined, her passion for Origin has remained strong.
Cherrington published this journal prior to her recent recall to the Westpac NSW Blues Women's team for the upcoming series opener at Suncorp Stadium.
New Blues coach John Strange specifically expressed his desire for her energetic presence on the bench after she was not selected for last year's inaugural Women's State of Origin matches.
