Achieving your goals with Professional Rugby Player - Danny Brough

In this episode we speak with award winning Rugby League player Danny Brough, about his career path so far, the trials and tribulations he has faced since deciding at a young age that a career in rugby was the path he wanted to take and what is next for him as he prepares to begin his testimonial year in 2020. Danny is currently in his second season playing for Superleague club Wakefield Trinity having had a very successful career so far in rugby league with, shall we say, a few hiccups along the way.  No career is ever plain sailing but with grit and determination and an unwavering desire to prove the naysayers wrong, Danny has proved that tenacity wins out and if you really do want something enough, with focus and effort you can make it happen. He has many accolades under his belt including being the most capped player for Scotland, winning the Man Of Steel Trophy in 2013 and winning the Albert Goldthorpe Medal 3 times!  His proudest moment was winning the Challenge Cup with Hull in 2005, something which he would really like to do again and he firmly believes that Wakefield have the squad to do this in 2020. Watch this space to see what other achievements Danny can scratch up whilst he is still playing, he has no plans to retire from the game despite being 37 next month (Jan 2020), and who knows, perhaps he will end up on a reality show such as I'm a Celebrity and give the world outside of Rugby League an opportunity to see just how competitive and focused he really is.
