A Saturday to Remember
On a memorable Saturday morning in South Wales, former British judo champion Anthony Johnson was glued to the screen as England battled New Zealand in a tense rugby match. The game was a nail-biter, but the highlight came when Immanuel Feyi-Waboso, a player Johnson had coached since childhood, scored a crucial try. Johnson and his wife were left in awe as they witnessed Feyi-Waboso's brilliance on the field. "I always knew he had it in him," Johnson remarked, his pride evident as he recalled the journey they had shared.
The Making of a Star
Feyi-Waboso's rise in rugby wasn't just about natural talent; it was also about overcoming skepticism. Johnson vividly remembers a conversation with Feyi-Waboso’s father, who was initially hesitant about his son playing rugby. "He was concerned about balancing sports and education," Johnson explained. "I assured him that with Immanuel's dedication, he could excel in both." This belief paid off as Feyi-Waboso not only shined in rugby but also managed to balance his education, proving Johnson right.
