Conor Joyce: Finding Purpose Through Rugby


Listen Later

Conor Joyce is a seriously inspiring person, passionate about rugby and promoting mental health in equal measure.


Conor excelled as a young rugby player, playing for Ireland under 18s, 19s and 20s and went on to have a successful career playing for Ulster, Jersey and Doncaster.
