Tired of the narrative that rugby league was dying, Fat Monkey was created to inject passion and promotion back into the community game. What began as a podcast quickly exploded, culminating in Monkey Fest 2024, a massive event that united 2,500 people and raised over £5,000 for charity. Fat Monkey is dedicated to showcasing the best of grassroots rugby league, proving this glorious sport is anything but on its last legs.
