Welcome to the Eventful Entrepreneur.

I'm Roger Woodall, founder of the Borma Sevens, the world's largest sport and music festival.

With all events in 2020 grinding to a halt, I'll be bringing people back together but in a different way.

This week I'm talking to my good mate and World Cup winner Lewis Moody.

Lewis has won the nicest people off the field but on the pitch was an absolute lunatic

and he'd put his head in place his people wouldn't even dream of.

Lewis has won seven premiership titles, two European Cups, played in two World Cup

Finals and winning the big one against Australia in 2003.

He opens up a lot about stuff he's never ever spoken about before on this episode.

Here's the man himself, Mr Lewis Moody, M-B-E.

Lou, tell me how you got signed for Lester Tigers.

So you didn't really get, well, you did get signed.

Obviously there were contracts that came in when the professional era came around.

But as a kid, you grew up in Oakham, Leicestershire, on the border of Lincoln

as well.

And when I was at school, so I had a couple of teachers, Andy Wilson, I and Brian Wilford,

who were sort of pivotal to my enjoyment

engagement in the game and my sort of development as a young man. But when I got to the first

team, a chap that I know you know well, Ian Dosser Smith became the first.

Legend. Top man, right, top man. Played for Lester Tigers for, you know, 15, 16, or 20 years.

He's still there now.

He was the academy manager last year.
