MP3•Главная эпизода

You will no doubt know that Coventry is a host city for the Commonwealth Games in 2022 but did you also know that city is hosting the International Children’s Games this year.

In August, more than 1500 of the best young sporting talents from around the world are travelling to the city for 6 days of completion across 7 sports.

We kick the episode off by speaking to Cllr Kamran Caan, Cabinet Member for Public Health and Sport, and Jon Hunt, Service Manager Sport, Physical Activity & Wellbeing, Coventry City Council about the benefits that hosting the games brings to the city and how local people can get involved in the games.

I then speak to John Timms, Event Director of the Games who tells me all about the journey of Coventry becoming host city, the huge amount of planning that has gone into preparing for a huge event and the lessons learned since we last hosted the Games in 2005.

Finally, I'm joined by Sophie and Eve, two Team Coventry swimmers who share their excitement in representing the city at the games and share some tips on how other young people in the city can begin to get involved in swimming.

Host: Aaron Ashmore

Intro music: Heal in Time by The Institutes
