The reality of life as a professional Rugby League player is a long way from the perception some people have of fat contracts, fast cars and the tabloid trappings of celebrity and fame.
Whilst players are well rewarded – at least compared to most young men of their age – their careers are short, filled with pressure and uncertainty, and often leave them disadvantaged.
The Rugby League Cares Business Club sets out to offset some of those disadvantages and involves the charity working in partnership with a number of world-leading service providers to enhance the lives of the game’s most important stakeholders: its players.
From legal services and car leasing to insurance and currency transactions, the RL Cares Business Club puts the needs of the players first.
Players can access the services of the companies who have signed up to the Business Club directly or via their club’s Player Welfare Manager.
If you are a player and would like more information on how to enjoy the advantages of the RL Cares Business Club, please contact the Head of RL Cares, Chris Rostron on 07917 282322 or e-mail chris.rostron@rlcares.org.uk
