We are delighted to introduce the ninth episode of our Women in Sport Podcast, where we discuss developments, initiatives, and issues relating to women in sports and the associated legal implications.
In this episode, Partner Emma Bartlett and Trainee Solicitor Mitchell Blythe are joined by a special guest, Becky Grey who is a senior journalist at BBC Sport, to discuss the following:
- The origin of Becky’s passion for sports reporting, the development of her role in the journalism industry and career highlights.
- The BBC Elite British Sportswomen’s Study published by Becky Grey and Sonia Oxley in March 2024 which covers a wide range of issues affecting sportswomen, including income, trolling, maternity and sexism.
- Becky’s involvement with Queen Bee Coaching, a free coaching service for women in leadership in Greater Manchester which aims to break down barriers and accelerate equity.
- The key catalyst moments which have assisted with changing the perception of women in sport.
- Who would be Becky’s ‘dream interview’?
You can also listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or SoundCloud.
