Will Greenwood is a former England, British Lions, and Rugby World Cup Winner and an inspirational and motivational speaker on leadership and team-ship.

He is widely regarded as one of England’s greatest ever rugby players, as well as one of the sport’s most engaging, intelligent, and entertaining characters.

A brilliantly funny after-dinner speaker, Will can shed light on the more serious lessons learned from a career in elite sport.
