Checking In… with Anthony White from Cornish Pirates – Rugby, Community and the Grit Behind the Game
Manage episode 478829140 series 3550210
This week, Dave and Steve sit down with Anthony White, director at the Cornish Pirates – Cornwall’s only full-time professional sports team – for a raw, real, and wide-ranging chat.
From his early days on the pitch to becoming a key part of the club's leadership, Anthony shares what rugby really means to the people of Cornwall. It's not just about tackles and tries – it’s community, resilience, and belonging.
The lads dig into Anthony’s background – from scaffold yards to offshore rigs – and how the graft of real life shaped his outlook. They chat honestly about men’s mental health, masculinity, the impact of social media, and how sport gives lads a space to let go and connect.
Whether you're a rugby fan, a Cornish soul, or just someone who loves a good story about life, growth and grit – this one’s got heart, humour, and a proper dose of perspective.
