Rugby player

Benjamin Brierley (born 20 December 1986) is a German international rugby union player, having last played for the Ampthill RUFC in the National League 3 Midlands and the German national rugby union team.

He has played rugby since 1980. Brierley, born in England, qualified to play for Germany because he spent the necessary number of years playing in the country, for SC 1880 Frankfurt. He returned to his home country after the 2008–09 season, having won a number of *les with Frankfurt. At the end of the 2009-10 season, where he was unable to play many games because of study commitments, Brierley decided to return to Germany, if able to find employment there.

He made his debut for Germany against Georgia on 7 February 2009 and was player of the year in the World Cup Qualifier games.
