The Rugby Football League Transition Mentor Programme is there to assist players adapting to life after playing competitively. The programme provides athletes approaching the end of their sporting careers as well as past players, with career consultancy, personal and professional development, mentoring and job placement via strategic alliances with key partners across many industries throughout the UK and beyond.Many retiring athletes have formal qualifications and a variety of transferable skills and knowledge gained through their experiences within professional sport. However, many struggle to manage the transition into the workforce due to a lack of knowledge, confidence, sound advice and an understanding of what is required to be successful outside of the world of sport. The Rugby Football League Transitioning programme has a detailed understanding of what it takes for athletes to be ready to enter the workforce and has established relationships with businesses across a wide variety of industries that recognise the qualities, attributes and values that many ex-players can bring to their organisations.My areas of expertise:Education throughout the squad including workshops and inspirational talks. Regular meetings with the RFL around initiatives and upcoming events. Creating and nurturing an environment towards younger players. Help with eventual transition of the older players. Financial and educational support towards mid career players.

Inspired by his own recovery from alcoholism and founded in 2000; Sporting Chance Clinic is the brainchild of former Arsenal and England captain Tony Adams MBE. Based on his experience, and what he felt was lacking, Tony saw the need for a safe, dedicated environment, where sportsmen and women could receive support and counselling for the kinds of destructive behaviour patterns that exist in the world of competitive sport, but that are often denied.Sporting Chance Clinic has since developed into one of the world’s most innovative centres for the treatment of behavioural problems among professional and amateur sports people.We also run a successful Lifestyle Education Seminar, designed to give young athletes the information and tools they need to avoid the pitfalls and destructive behaviour patterns which can develop in the pressure-cooker world of professional sport. We are proud to be an integral tool for a number of football clubs and other sporting organisations including the PFA, English and Scottish Premier Leagues, League Football Education (LFE) and SPFA.Located in Forest Mere, Hampshire, (click for map) Sporting Chance Clinic benefits from the high quality facilities supplied by Champneys and enjoys the 158-acre site of outstanding natural beauty.“Sporting Chance is absolutely up there with all the medals I’ve ever won, the England cap and everything. I’m very proud of what I created here.”Tony Adams MBE

1st Team Squad MemberHalifax Rugby League Club was formed way back in 1873. It was a Rugby Union club in those days, as all rugby clubs were before the birth of Rugby League in 1895, and was very successful in that code. After becoming the first ever winners of the Yorkshire Cup in 1878, Halifax went on to win it on four further occasions. Several players were supplied for the Yorkshire County side in these years, and five were picked for the full England Rugby Union team.The club moved into their previous home of Thrum Hall in 1886, their home for the next 112 years until the move in 1998 to the re-developed 'Shay Stadium' to ground-share with local footballing neighbours, Halifax Town AFC.Halifax were founder members of the Rugby League (then known as the Northern Union) in 1895. They continued to be very successful, producing one of their best ever teams in the early years of the twentieth century. In season 1902-03 they achieved the 'double' by winning the Challenge Cup and finishing top of Division One. They won the cup again the following season, and were the first ever Championship Play-off winners in season 1906-07.When the Challenge Cup Final was taken to Wembley in 1929, Halifax became one of the first teams to sample its special magic, beating York in the 1931 final. They have since been to Wembley six more times, winning in 1939 and 1987, with their last appearance being in 1988 when they lost to Wigan
