Aidan Toua: Rugby Union, Pukpuks Desire, Sport, Education, Enjoying What You Do Mind + Set

Growing up in PNG then moving in his teens to Australia - boarding school & loved it. Rugby union on the radar at 16 years of age. The importance of enjoying what you do. Plenty of Potential in PNG Rugby. More real pathways are needed. The challenges of moving to France and Japan. Embracing the new cultures and importance of diving in rather than dipping the toes. Ease up on the red wines, croissants and baguettes :) Not making all the sacrifices necessary to play at the top. Injuries playing a part in a sporting career and learning from them early is key. Importance of having the support network around you.
