To Ireland at the age of 14 – “Rugby is more important to me than my driver’s license”

Date:

At the age of 14, Caspar Gabriel left home to play rugby in Ireland. The now 18-year-old has since become one of the top talents in the playmaker position, became a sought-after stock and has already played for the Irish national team under 19. He was born in Vienna and subordinates everything to his dream of becoming a rugby professional and cycles even in rainy Irish weather.

During a youth rugby tournament in Ireland four years ago, some coaches there were informed of a then 14-year-old Viennese boy. Caspar Gabriel impressed them with his talent. Four years later, the now 18-year-old made his debut for the Irish U19 national team. “The beginning was very difficult,” recalls the mature and sympathetic young man in an interview with “Krone”.
