League Legends for mental health

From Afternoons, 1:25 pm today

Rotorua is set to host the inaugural League Legends XIII this October - a two-day rugby league programme of events to support men's mental health and well-being. The initiative was created by ex-Kiwi and Warriors player, Sione Faumuina, who represented Aotearoa in the Kiwi's side in 2003 and 2004. 

Sione's own journey with mental health hasn't always been easy, and it's made him more determined than ever to encourage other men to take their mental health seriously.
