David is well known on the speaking circuit and having heard him in action at an event last night we are very, very lucky to have landed him.

Tricky, as he is affectionately known, was born on 26 October 1960. He was educated at Bryanston School and Bath University. He started playing rugby at 8 and represented England at every level from U16 to full international. He joined Bath in 1978 and played 247 times for Bath, scoring a massive 191 tries. David was also National Junior 100m sprint Champion with a best time of 10.4 seconds (almost as fast as me!), but decided to concentrate on rugby when he realised that he preferred late nights and drinking to training and orange squash.

David was a member of the England Squad form 1980 - 1986,  toured Argentina (1981) and South Africa (1984) - playing 12 times for England and scoring 11 tries.

These days David is a keen golfer and an established speaker at events like the pre Badminton Horse trials dinner where Prince Charles, Lord Westmoreland and The Duke of Beaufort were among the guests. He has also spoken at numerous sporting dinners, corporate business events, golf dinners and at events like: Bermuda World Rugby Classics, Hong Kong Tens Official Dinner, Natwest & Midland Bank's Olympic Dinners.

David has very generously waived his usual fee and we will be raising some cash on the night, for his chosen charity - The Lang Jones Bursary Fund.
