Series 12 of the Game Changers
Hello and welcome to a series 12 of The Game Changers – the podcast that celebrates the trailblazers in women’s sport. What can we learn from their careers as we explore some of the key issues around equality in sport and beyond.
I’m delighted that once again this season is supported by Sport England through a National Lottery Award.

- We’ll also include panel discussions considering women’s sports clothing and racial inclusion in women’s sport. These episodes feature game changing guests including Rimla Akhtar, Wendy Taylor, Tess Howard, Holly Bradshaw, Garnet Mackinder, Anne Wafula Strike and Shruti Saujani
- Finally, we’ll be celebrating our 100th episode by returning to talk to a very special guest who featured in our first series and is considered by many to the most influential woman in British Sport – Sally Munday, the CEO of UK Sport
