Kevin Sinfield, English rugby player
Kevin Sinfield (born 12 September 1980) is the defence coach for the Leicester Tigers who play in Premiership Rugby, the top division of English rugby union. He is a former professional rugby league player, captain and director of rugby for Leeds Rhinos in the Super League, and also played internationally for England and Great Britain. His usual position was loose forward, although he played both stand-off and hooker on occasion. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest kickers in rugby league history.
Sinfield played his entire professional career with Leeds and is one of the most successful players in the Super League history, having captained the team to seven Super League championships and two Challenge Cup successes. He also earned individual accolades as winner of the Lance Todd Trophy (2005), Harry Sunderland Trophy twice (2009, 2012) and the Golden Boot (2012), one of only five British-based players to win the latter. He holds records as the highest points-scorer in Super League history, the third highest points-scorer in British rugby league history, and Leeds' record points scorer. Sinfield is also only one of two players to have led a team to win three consecutive Super League titles (the other being James Roby for St Helens).
He won 26 caps for England, who he captained, and 14 caps for Great Britain.
