Danny Care

Danny Care, a celebrated English rugby union player, first made an indelible mark on the sport after joining the Leeds Tykes academy in 2003, making his debut for the club the same year. His rapid ascent led to him being named the Tykes’ Players’ Young Player of the Year. Care further distinguished himself representing England in sevens rugby, notably as the top try scorer at the 2004 Commonwealth Youth Games where England secured a silver medal. He signed his first professional contract with Leeds Tykes in 2004 and made his Guinness Premiership debut in 2005.

After a stellar run, Care announced his retirement from international rugby following the 2024 Six Nations Championship, where England finished second. He signed a new one-year deal with Harlequins in 2024, completing his 19th season with the club before his professional rugby retirement in May 2025. Moving forward, Care will leverage his vast experience and popularity, continuing his involvement with Harlequins in an ambassadorial capacity, while also pursuing significant media responsibilities.
