This week we talk to Newport born Adam Millichip. A welsh schoolboy cricketer, Adam was man of the match in the Welsh Cup Final in 2008 when Newport defeated Northop Hall CC.
He talks about growing up, being part of a succesful age group cricket team and playing for Newport.
He also tells us about his career as a special needs teacher, his work in Shrewsbury and more recently Wolverhampton and his recent work on the TWS Sports Podcast. The podcast was born out of the lockdown when the school was searching for something that could encourage school pupils to develop new skills. From its early days when Adam held each episode together, school pupils now plan questions and undertake all the interviews for the podcast themselves.
The list of those wioth a connection to sport that the podcast has interviewed is very impressive. On the cricket front they interviewed Nasser Hussain, David Lloyd, Rob Key, Mathew Hoggard, Mathew Hayden, Monty Panesar, Steve waugh, Michael Atherton and Marnus Labuschagne.
