Show Notes
The Six Nations is coming to an end - so we thought it was worth taking a dip into our archives to revisit some of our top guests from the world of rugby.
So, in this episode, we're going to hear again from ...
- The iconic rugby referee Nigel Owens on how he got into officiating in the first place, and the pressure of social media.
- Verity Smith talks about life as a transgender rugby player - and some of the challenges that have come with playing the game he loves.
- Andy Smith is the co-founder of the Westcountry Wasps - so what makes a cisgendered, heterosexual man want to help start an inclusive club?
They're three fantastic guests we were delighted to have on - and a great demonstration of why rugby can be such an inclusive sport for the LGBTQ+ community.
