In a unique, touching and honest memoir, rugby legend Ben Youngs, for the first time, bares it all.Ben Youngs has had a dream career. He was born into rugby royalty and has achieved incredible success with both his family club, Leicester Tigers, and the English national team, for whom he is the most capped player of all time. His is an on-field legacy that any rugby player would envy.But there’s more to his story than meets the eye.In this deeply intimate memoir, the English rugby legend writes about how his remarkable record on the pitch masks what was, at times, a turbulent life off it. There have been highs: the 2019 World Cup final; finding friendship, brotherhood and a home at Leicester Tigers; enjoying an eighteen-match unbeaten streak under Eddie Jones. But there have also been lows: losing two family members to terminal illnesses within a year; falling out of love with rugby; withdrawing from the Lions tour in 2017.In Beyond the Line, for the first time, Ben shares his story with the public. With equal parts wit and warmth, the five-time Premiership champion, four-time Six Nations Winner, and member of the 2013 winning Lions test tour vividly recounts the raucous nights and spontaneous adventures that only those within the inner circle typically get to witness, revealing not just the pressures of competition, but also the camaraderie and wild experiences that come with a life in rugby.
