Ben Youngs is England's most-capped men's rugby player, combining tactical intelligence with lightning-quick decision-making that has defined modern scrum-half play.
A product of the Leicester Tigers academy, Ben made his senior debut at 17 and went on to win five Premiership titles with the club. Over a 13-year international career, he earned 127 caps for England, played in four Rugby World Cups, and was central to four Six Nations victories, including the 2016 Grand Slam. Renowned for his quick decision-making, composure, and leadership, he has been a defining presence in both domestic and international rugby.
Off the field, Ben has become a trusted voice in rugby commentary and media. He co-hosts the popular podcast For the Love of Rugby with Dan Cole, where he shares insights from his long career and explores the human side of the game. His bestselling memoir, Beyond The Line, offers a candid look at the highs and lows of professional sport, from moments of triumph to personal challenges and loss.
Ben’s story of endurance, leadership, and emotional resilience resonates far beyond the pitch. His talks reveal what it takes to sustain elite performance, foster teamwork, and find purpose through adversity, lessons that translate powerfully to business, education, and personal growth.
Book Ben Youngs for an authentic connection with a sporting icon whose career exemplifies sustained excellence through constant adaptation and unwavering commitment.
