Women of Mann in Sport

Perspective

Sunday, 4 August 2019 - 1 hour 21 minutes

We've seen a summer of success for many sports men and women from across the British Isles, and increased coverage and exposure for many women's sports in particular - which prompted us to take a look at Women in Sport from a Manx perspective.

Included in that summer of success, there have been excellent results for many of the people and teams representing the Isle of Man in various disciplines.

The Manx football team won at Ynys Mon, our netballers won at the Netball Europe Open Challenge event - the first ever international netball competition hosted on the Island - and of course we saw a huge array of successes at the Island Games in Gibraltar, to name just a few examples.

Joining us in the studio, we had: Jane Ryder-Clague, a Netball player and P.E. teacher; Lauren Ellison, a Rugby and Basketball player and teacher; Becky Dunne, a Basketball player and P.E. teacher; Hannah Riley, an Athlete and the Island's Athletics Development Officer; plus Rhian Evans, a Netball player and Multimedia Journalist at Manx Radio who is the Guest Producer for this episode of Perspective.
