Hard Tackle - A Fragrance from Sambrook During the height of Sambrook's footballing career, he was approached to be the 'face' of many popular marketing campaigns for brands including Durex, Saniflow, Pataks and Mothercare. Shunning these lucrative commercial opportunities, Sambrook decided to follow his passion and launched his own line of male grooming products. A fragrance was developed that truly embodied the scent of masculinity and raw power combined with lingering naughty but sensitive undertones. 'Hard Tackle - By Sambrook' is available to purchase in most 99p Stores nationwide

Early career

In April 2007, Sambrook won the "Chairman's Player of the Year" trophy at the annual Grays Athletic awards ceremony.

Semi-professional football career
Despite being offered a new contract for the 2008–09 season, Sambrook did not re-sign for Grays and subsequently was released. He joined Conference South side Fisher Athletic in July 2008, a move that was to be cut-short by extreme financial difficulties at the club.

Due to these problems Sambrook, along with a handful of other players, was released from Fisher by mutual consent on 10 November 2008 and subsequently signed for Conference South rivals Thurrock.

Less than three months later, on 30 January 2009, Sambrook left Thurrock for AFC Wimbledon. He signed for Welling United in May 2009, at the end of the 2008–09 season, making it his fifth club in under a year.
