(UTV|COLOMBO) – The All Blacks legend, Sonny Bill Williams who has 47 international caps for his country in union, has enrolled on an Applied Management bachelor’s degree course, along with nine of his Blues team-mates.
They will continue to play for the Auckland-based Super Rugby side while they study.
Course leader Glenys Ker explained that Williams will be “no different to any other student”.
She said: “I understand that sport is a big part of their lives – it is their career – and they have actually achieved a lot of things, both in and out of sport.
“They are beautiful writers. Their ability to reflect on what they do, what they have done, who they are and who they want to be… it’s a real privilege to gain such insights.”
If all goes well, the 32-year-old will graduate in April 2019 – just in time to collect his cap and gown before the World Cup in Japan.
