Sir Kevin Sinfield (born 12 September 1980) is an English rugby union coach who is the skills and kicking coach for the England national team. He is a former professional rugby league footballer who played for the Leeds Rhinos, England and Great Britain. He played as a loose forward or stand-off and occasionally as a hooker. Sinfield played his entire professional career with Leeds and is one of the most successful players in Super League history, having captained the team to seven Super League championships and two Challenge Cup successes. He also earned individual accolades as winner of the Lance Todd Trophy (2005), Harry Sunderland Trophy twice (2009, 2012) and the Golden Boot (2012), one of only five British-based players to win the latter. He holds records as the highest points-scorer in Super League history, the third-highest points-scorer in British rugby league history and Leeds' record points scorer. Sinfield is also only one of two players to have led a team to win three consecutive Super League titles. He won 26 caps for England, which he captained, and 14 caps for Great Britain. Sinfield played rugby union for Leeds's sister club Yorkshire Carnegie in 2015-16 and retired from playing in 2016. Since retirement he has become one of British sport's most prominent charity fundraisers, raising over £11 million for causes associated with motor neurone disease, and in 2026 became only the second rugby league player ever to be knighted for services to the sport.
