Description
Old School tells the story of Nathan Hindmarsh, one of rugby league’s most popular players and captain of the Parramatta Eels. It’s an inspiring autobiography about an old-fashioned type of footballer, a one-club man whose hard work and commitment on the footy field are legendary, and who has always led from the front.
Along the way Old School gives readers a view from the paddock of Hindmarsh’s record-breaking career at Parramatta, and chronicles the dizzying highs of playing for your club, state and country and the heartbreaking lows of grand final defeats. Hindmarsh reveals the joys of marriage and fatherhood, and of playing for and captaining the club he loves, but also uncovers with unflinching honesty the personal issues that he has struggled with off the field.
Down-to-earth, honest and full of warmth and humour, this book is a must-read for Nathan’s army of fans and friends.
