BIOGRAPHY
During his time as Chief Executive of Bradford Bulls, the ground breaking rugby league side won the Challenge Cup and the Super League Championship, and were crowned World Club Champions.
A former college lecturer, professional rugby league player, and one of the UK's leading discus throwers, Ekoku only came to rugby administration following an injury. He became the first full-time Chairman of the Professional Players' Association.
As well as driving commercial success, Abi ensured Bradford Bulls played its part as a key regional stakeholder, influencing cultural and social change. He initiated the Community and Education Programme, providing a blueprint for many professional sports organisations looking to interact more closely with their local communities.
Abi has become one of Bradford's chief ambassadors as it seeks to stimulate regeneration, redevelopment and re-emergence as an important economic centre following traumatic riots. As a speaker as in everything he does, Abi has a natural ability to inspire any and all levels of audience.
