| Due to his father being in the RAF young Dan moved around a lot and played rugby where he could, but settled down to play at Newark between the age of 12 and 16. One steadying influence in his early years was rugby at boarding school, attending Calstons meant he could play a much more regular game.
After his time playing at Newark, up to U16 level Dan decided he would try and make a career out of the professional game, appreciating that a lot of hard work would have to take place if he was to succeed. Playing first team games at Bath, during his four years there was a great achievement.
