James Haskell

Add To Speakers List

James Haskell is a former England international rugby player who played 77 times for his country, as well as the British & Irish Lions. In domestic rugby, he represented Wasps (on two separate occasions) and Northampton Rugby, as well as spending time in France, Japan and New Zealand. Since retiring from rugby he’s become a popular television personality and one of the best after dinner rugby speakers on the circuit. Available for a whole host of corporate and personal engagements, his sparkling sense of humour and larger than life personality make James an excellent choice.

James made his professional rugby debut for Wasps in 2002 and was part of the team that won the Premiership title in 2008. On the international scene, his England debut came in 2007 and he went on to represent his country in some of the biggest matches in the sport including the Rugby World Cup and Six Nations. At all of his rugby speaking events, James can outline to audiences what it was like to play for his county at the highest level. As well as this, he always comes armed with a whole host of hilarious stories from the dressing room that he’s only too happy to share with audiences.

While his successful rugby career came to an end in 2019, James’ off the pitch life has continued to go from strength to strength. He’s become a popular TV personality appearing on a variety of primetime shows including I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! which saw him take on the formidable Australian jungle. As well as this, he launched his own rugby podcast, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby alongside former England international Mike Tindall and broadcaster Alex Payne. He’s also worked as a rugby pundit, offering his expert insight on the sport’s biggest matches and talking points – something he can also provide when hired as a rugby speaker.

There are a vast array of rugby speakers out there, but none can provide the level of enjoyment and entertainment as James Haskell. From explaining what it takes to succeed at the highest level of professional sport to wowing audiences with his repertoire of incredible anecdotes, he has everything to make your event a success.
