The Q & A – Its winter so get involved!
It is winter (near enough!) and time to have a little fun with the end of season Q & A’s. Two options, one inspired by the Q & A from our friends at Primera Sports and the other one I did earlier. During the winter, we will have lots of interviews but we want everyone to get involved, from Elite to the proper grass roots so have a go and email to us with a picture …
