Personal profile
Mr Waterfield is married with
four children. When available, he still plays rugby and cricket, and hacks around a golf
course. He coaches a youth rugby side and maintains a somewhat more distant interest in
his older daughter's international synchronised swimming. Rock climbing is more difficult
to arrange, but family skiing holidays are the norm. |
