In today’s Sports For Champions podcast, we sat down with professional Apex scooter rider Jamie Hull. Nearly a decade after pleading with his mother to buy him his first scooter, Jamie’s penchant for executing spectacular aerial flips, and accomplishing the feat of being crowned UK and EU champion in the same year has cemented him as one of the most sought out talents in his professional scene.  Can he go one better and secure the no.1 World Champion status?  In this episode, we dig deep into the intricacies of Jamie’s rise to the top. From sitting in his bedroom watching scooter videos on Youtube to performing triple-backflips over exotic cars with Youtube superstar Tanner Fox, Jamie opens up about his journey from turning his hobby into a career.  

Jamie discusses his hopes for scootering to one day be entered into the Olympics. In anticipation, he’s proactively incorporating a stricter adherence to gym-going and greater attention to healthy nutritional advice. Question is, can he fend off the flurry of knee and ankle injuries that threaten to halt his advancements?

In today’s Sports For Champions podcast, we sat down with Wheelchair Rugby League World Cup winner Martin Norris and special guest podcaster Mason Baker.

 Whilst winning the World Cup was categorically the defining moment of his career, he charismatically talked to us about his long history as part of the first ever British Wheelchair Rugby League team, and how his early input shaped the future tactics and ruleset.

Martin openly describes his aspirations to stay involved with the sport as he draws closer to retirement. He discusses his new position as a role model for the future stars, and the upward trend in growth resulting from modern media channel exposure.

Martin elaborates upon his involvement in the first ever Sky Sports broadcasted Wheelchair Rugby League match.  More recently, Martin had the honour of being presented his England Heritage Cap, a moment of great sentimental value to him.

To close the show, Mason took his opportunity to pick Martin’s brain about his own start in the sport, and the qualities and attributes necessary to succeed.

 In today’s Sports For Champions podcast, we sat down with back-to-back Paralympic gold medallist and British Rowing phenomenon Laurence Whiteley MBE. Having reached the pinnacle of sporting achievement in the mixed double scull event alongside his teammate Lauren Rowles at both the Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 Paralympics, what’s next for our dynamic duo? Or does Laurence have plans to go solo?  In this episode, we discuss all aspects of Laurence’s illustrious career in rowing, his rise to fame, the mounting pressure and expectations for him to replicate his success in Rio, and his struggle to build a support network. Forget shades of grey, this conversation has polarising moments of lighthearted fun mixed with deep, emotional discussions surrounding Laurence’s courageous uphill battle against Cancer during his teens, and his fear that he’s losing his hunger for Rowing after years of strenuous training to achieve everything possible in his lane.
