Ben Pegna - Sports Relations Manager

Experience

I have played rugby professionally and semi-professionally around the world, and also have worked for the investment bank Morgan Stanley. I studied law while playing rugby for Caerphilly, and subsequently played for London Scottish and Saracens in the UK before playing in South Africa for the Leopards, and also Australia. In 2005 I was included in the England Sevens training squad. Earlier this year I switched to rugby league and I'm currently playing for Harlequins. I joined Right To Playin March as Sports Relations Manager and will shortly be married to Tarryn.
