Two decades ago, Texas Prosecutor and World Rugby legend Bob Latham, asked me if I would consider running to be elected as Chairman of USA Rugby. He would be honoured to serve with me as Vice Chair.
We had a blast for eight years until I termed out and Bob stepped up into the Chair.
The smartest thing we did during that eight years was to persuade former England Rugby Skipper, British Lion and top, all-round bloke – Nigel Melville – to leave England and join us in our adventure as the CEO of USA Rugby.
Last week re reconvened in Beckwood, Grasmere, for an outstanding dinner at The Samling, a Michelin starred restaurant in neighbouring Ambleside.
The boys stayed the night in Beckwood and the memories flowed.
Rugby: The Game They Play in Heaven.
And Old Friends – in The Lakes – in the sunshine.
It’s the little things!!!
