About this listen

The Sporty Forty is hosted by two sports nuts Joe and Rikki and covers our quest to see 40 different sports in our home city of Sheffield before we turn 40.

From world famous names to dedicated amateurs, stuff you never knew was happening and everything in between we want to celebrate it all.

Each episode we will chat about the sport we have experienced and we'll rank it for atmosphere, food and drink, the venue as well the all important sporting action.

Join your enthusiastic hosts as we discover just how sporty Sheffield really is and if we are as sporty as we think we are.

    This time we head to The Climbing Works to experience the International Festival

    You'll hear how we missed out on both pizza and the best seat in the house, our attempt to get to grips with the scoring system and how starting upside down is apparently the way to go.

    From elite athletes making the impossible look easy to us two making the easy look impossible, join us for episode two.

    Two down, thirty eight to go.

    Welcome to The Sporty Forty, the podcast where two enthusiastic sports fans, Joe and Rikki, attempt to see 40 different sports before we hit 40.

    In this episode we talk a little about how the idea came about, what counts as a sport and how on earth we are going to go about doing it.

    If you're into sports, Sheffield or listening to two blokes wondering what is going on then this is the podcast for you.
