A Life in the League

3 Jul 2024

14:00 - 15:00

City Park

Hosted by Ian Stafford of Bradford Bulls, this event will offer an opportunity to delve into the lives and experiences of two esteemed figures from Yorkshire's Rugby League, Robbie Hunter-Paul and Ikram Butt. 

Hunter-Paul's illustrious, 19-season career playing for Britain’s top Rugby League clubs and his tenure as CEO at Bradford Bulls will provide a wealth of stories and insights into the sport. So, too, will Butt's ground-breaking achievement as the first British Muslim to represent England in Rugby, overcoming prejudice and inspiring a generation of young people to pursue their dreams. 

Enjoy anecdotes, observations and reflections from these revered players, shedding light on the dedication, passion, and challenges that accompany ‘A Life in the League.’
