It’s only a matter of days until the Commonwealth Games kick off in Birmingham so, for second week running, Forces Sport has been speaking to a couple of our forces athletes. British Army judokas Sarah Hawkes and Victor Ahiavor will both be taking to the mat but representing different countries. Sarah is so proud to be competing for Northern Ireland and says this feels like a home games because her friends and family will be able to come and watch.
