The England Cricket Board, England Hockey and England Netball have collaborated to launch a three-year campaign to maximise the legacy of hosting three consecutive World Cups and build a fan base for women’s team sports. They have an ambitious target to ensure all 7-13-year-old girls across the country have the opportunity to experience the benefits of team sport. One of the players who is helping to promote this initiative is England cricketing all rounder Georgia Elwiss. Georgia made her international debut for England in 2011. Having featured in the 2016 World Twenty20, she was named as the captain of Loughborough Lighting in the inaugural Kia Super League.

Chris Stafford talks to U.S. born Canadian Jamie Sinclair, 25, who has her sights set on the 2018 Winter Olympic Games and is checking off all the boxes along the way. Her recent U.S. National Championship crown is a career highlight for the now Minnesotan resident whose passion for Curling is infectious. Jamie was encouraged into the sport at the age of nine with her older brothers and collected medals as a Junior for Canada before being recruited to the U.S. National squad. She graduated from Carleton University with an Honors Degree in International Business and is trilingual in English, French and Spanish.

Chris Stafford talks to Jamaican born Deta Hedman who has been an international darts player for more than 40 years with over 100 rankings titles to her name making her a legend in the sport. Some of her most prestigious titles include the World Masters, Europe Cup, Las Vegas Desert Classic and Zuiderduin Masters. But it is the World Championship crown which has eluded her and remains top of her bucket list. With tournaments both at home in England and abroad every weekend, Deta stays as focused and motivated as ever, whether she is representing her Oxford Club or England. She tells us how her family moved to the UK when she was just a teenager and how, despite darts being a male dominated sport, she made her mark.  She says she has always enjoyed playing men but when she beats them they are reluctant to admit they were beaten by a woman, even though she is one of the best players in the world.
