A clergyman’s son from Mid Wales can lay claim to be the great all-round sportsman most people have ever heard of. A modest grave in Aberhafesp in Powys is the only memorial to a man who scored a century at Lord’s, captained England at football, won an Olympic Gold at tennis, scored 147 at snooker, was a Cambridge blue at golf and real tennis – and once beat Charlie Chaplain at table tennis using a butter knife as a bat. Now Peter Jackson invites his biographer to lay bare the story of this relatively unsung hero. And Peter uses archive to tell the story of other people talented at more than once sport, like Olympic gold medal boxer Lauren Price (soccer, taekwondo, kickboxing, netball) or Audrey Bates, a Welsh Sports Hall of Famer who represented her country at lacrosse, tennis, squash and table tennis. And Peter talks to modern multi-sports talent Rebecca Rowe who has rowed for Great Britain, competed in the Rugby World Cup and Six Nations for Wales and was a world champion and world record holder in surf lifesaving. Why isn’t one sport enough for some people?
