E11. David Solomona: NRL Wellbeing & Education
Show Notes

David Solomona is a former NRL (Roosters/Eels) & Super League (Wakefield/Bradford/Warrington) star, with a career that spanned over a decade. David is from great football stock - with 4 uncles playing for Samoa (including Toa Samoa's very first captain), as well as 3 family members playing in the NRL.

He also had the rare distinction of playing both front-row forward as well as play-maker at the highest level for the NZ Kiwis in their win against the almighty Australian Kangaroos.

David is currently working in the all-important Wellbeing and Education space supporting NRL players with post-career paths and providing pastoral care. A man of integrity, David genuinely cares about others and is the perfect fit for this role.

Tune in to hear how David is giving back to the game that took him across the globe and back again, chasing a dream and an opportunity to represent and provide for his wife Utu and their three daughters.

David - the walking contradiction: the laid-back yet fierce competitor and barnstorming playmaker. Damannnnn.
