Retired Pro Rugby player Dominic Day has teamed up with former teammate and Professional Rugby Player George Kruis, creating FourFiveCBD. The company & product line was inspired by their pro rugby careers, in an effort to support athletes, their active lifestyles as well as push for awareness and Education.
“I think we need to instil knowledge in coaches and the unions. There’s obviously still a stigma around cannabis and we want to educate people about it.”

Kruis has played pro rugby for over 12 years, achieving over 45 caps for England during 2 World Cups and a British & Lions Tour. He was introduced to CBD by fellow teammate Dominic Day who was looking for a natural supplement to help manage symptoms from a long and strenuous career.
“There’s a definite lack of knowledge but they’re not against it. If anything people are intrigued to find out more…There are four or five people in every club who are taking it – so it’s about creating a product everyone is happy to take and governing bodies are also happy with.”
