Playing for peace and a long walk to Tokyo
Ukrainian footballer Vova Kubrakov opens up about how football helps him cope with the war in his home country. He was part of a mixed charity game with teams made up of Portland Timbers and Thorns players that raised more than half a million dollars for UNICEF's relief efforts in Ukraine. We also hear from Valeriy Sushkevych, the President of Ukraine's Paralympic Committee who's told the BBC they don’t know how much longer they’ll be able to carry on. We're in Miami as F1 makes it's debut in the city at a Super Bowl worthy setting. US Racewalker Robyn Stevens tells Caroline Barker about the eating disorder that forced her to give up athletics and the journey that led her back to the sport and helped her achieve her Olympic dream 17 years after walking away. As the WNBA season gets underway all 12 teams will have the initials and number of Brittney Griner on their courts to show support for the Phoenix Mecury star who is “wrongfully detained” in Russia. The Mercury will continue to support BG’s Heart and Sole shoe drive in her honour, we’ll hear from the Phoenix Rescue Mission, the charity Brittney worked with to set that up about the difference she’s made in the city. And Sporting Witness takes us back to 2012 and the nail biting finish that led to Manchester City's first Premier League title.
