Garry Schofield is an English former professional rugby league footballer, born on 1 July 1965 and appointed OBE, who played in the 1980s and 1990s and is a member of the British Rugby League Hall of Fame. He made his debut for Hull FC at seventeen in 1983, then moved to his home town club Leeds in 1987 for what was then a world record fee. At the time of his retirement he shared the record as the most capped Great Britain player of all time, with 46 appearances, and he also won three England caps. He captained Great Britain on tour, and in 2011 Rugby League World magazine retrospectively awarded him the 1990 Golden Boot as the best player in the world. Late in his career he played for Huddersfield and later Doncaster and Bramley.
