Phil Hassan (born August 18, 1974) is a professional rugby league and rugby union footballer of the 1990s and 2000s, playing club level rugby league (RL) for Leeds, Salford, Halifax, Wakefield Trinity and Swinton, as a Wing, or Centre, and playing club level rugby union (RU) for Worcester, and Fylde.[1]

Leeds career

Phil Hassan joined Leeds in August 1993, making his début in his first season. Phil Hassan joined from Wigan-based amateur club St Paul's. Phil Hassan played against his home town club in the crushing Premiership Trophy Final of 1995. Phil Hassan was a regular in the Leeds first team squad over the next three seasons but his big break through came at the start of Super League when he made 24 appearances and scored four tries. Phil Hassan established himself in the Leeds first team and kicked on the following season, missing only one game and scoring 11 tries, including a spectacular long range try in both games against Salford that season. In total, Phil Hassan played 71 times for Leeds scoring 16 tries, however the arrival of Brad Godden meant there was no place for Hassan at Headingley.

Rugby career

Phil Hassan moved on from Leeds at the end of the 1997 season, switching codes to play rugby union with Worcester (RU). Phil Hassan returned to rugby league with Salford before joining Halifax in 2000.
