From parenting to running a busy business, we talk to top rugby stars about their careers and the people who’ve got them through in our new series.
In rugby and business, you need a good team behind you to succeed – but these people often go unseen. As proud champions of SMEs, we want to celebrate the countless support systems who back the big players and small businesses from the sidelines.
In our new Team Behind the Shirt series, we talk to Sam Underhill, George Ford and Ellis Genge about how they got started in business, and how the right backing has helped them thrive in both sport, and as business owners.
Bristol Bears prop and powerhouse Ellis Genge shares his story of becoming a professional rugby player and business owner and discusses how he’s driving change on and off the pitch.
Hear Bath Rugby flanker Sam Underhill reveal all about his coffee business and his motivations while Sale Sharks fly-half George Ford shares the challenges of balancing running a business alongside a professional rugby career.
From the dream business partner to the ideal catering manager and party planner… find out which rugby stars would succeed in the business world in our last series, Team Behind The Team.

Earlier this year we visited Carter & George, the high-end physiotherapy clinic set up by ex-England captain Jamie George and his long-time friend Rhys Carter. After opening their first clinic in Hertford, they realised they needed support with their cash flow in order to grow.
They told us all about their mission, and how they reached their goals with the backing of a Funding Circle loan.
