Weaving through Bridgend Industrial Estate it's easy to switch off, however a new, bright green sign attached to a large unit grabs your eye, standing to attention amongst the rest. Inside, former Welsh regions player Rory Pitman sits inside as he gets ready to launch the hub of his new venture.
Coming to the end of a professional sporting career is never easy, whether it's through retiring, not being signed to a new contract, or injury, there's a big adjustment period which is something Rory has been very open about in the past. Today, however, coming back to his Bridgend roots, 32-year-old Rory stands positive and ready for his next venture supporting both the next generation of athletes in Wales and the wider community.
Born out of some Whatsapp messages during lockdown, A-Head of the Game Nutrition is a meal-prep company founded by Rory that aims to get athletes in their best physical and mental mindset to train effectively. After growing from success to success over the last two years, the company has now settled in Bridgend with an aim to give back to the community in more ways than one.
