Sir Geoff Hurst, MBE is the former West Ham and England footballer, enshrined in the game's history as the only player to have scored a hat-trick in a World Cup final.

His three goals came in the 1966 final for England in their 4-2 win over West Germany at Wembley. BBC commentator, Kenneth Wolstenholme made the most famous piece of football commentary ever…

“And here comes Hurst, he's got... (notices invaders) ...some people are on the pitch, they think it's all over… (Hurst shoots and scores) It is now!”

Such an achievement was made all the more remarkable by the fact that he was only five months and eight games into his international career, and was not considered his country's premier centre forward.

After his soccer career, Geoff Hurst became a successful businessman, working in the insurance industry. In 1998 he was knighted for services to football and in 2004 when he was inducted in the English Football Hall of Fame.

Geoff Hurst is one of the world’s living sporting icons and legend and is in great demand as an entertaining and motivational speaker.
