Speaking Topic
For professional and amateur athletes alike, retirement isn't just the end of a career — it's the loss of an identity. Danny knows exactly what that feels like.
About This Session
Danny Sculthorpe played 300 professional rugby league games. He captained England. And then, aged 32, it was over — not by choice, but by injury. What followed was a depression so severe it nearly killed him. His session on life after sport speaks directly to athletes, coaches, clubs and sporting organisations about the brutal reality of transition — and what support needs to look like. It's honest, it's personal, and it's changing how sport thinks about player welfare.
