A proposito di questo titolo

The Sporty Forty is hosted by two sports nuts Joe and Rikki and covers our challenge 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.

    European Figure Skating Championships - How Was It and Was It Worth The Money?
    May 1 2026

    We headed to the European Figure Skating Championships held in Sheffield as the next stop in our 40 sports challenge.

    It may look sleek and elegant but is it different live?

    Hear about flaming teddy bears, the brilliant but controversial French couple and Joe gets political.

    As always we rank the atmosphere, venue, food and action for our leaderboard.

    Please rate and review us if you are able as it makes us easier to find.

    Six down, thirty four to go.

    E5. Beards, Brute Force and Breakfast at The English Weekend Of Strength
    Apr 11 2026

    We venture a little outside of Sheffield for this one to Doncaster Dome for the English Weekend Of Strength.

    Big characters lifting big things, lots of grunting cheering and a real close and supportive community.

    Hear about the dedication needed to succeed in this compelling sport, a brilliant bonus breakfast and why the event's name was making us a little nervous.

    Join Joe and Rikki for nostalgic TV chat, more toilet mishaps and us finding out what gear really means.

    Five down, thirty five to go.

    In this episode we head back indoors to Ponds Forge for some competitive swimming. And boy was it competitive, with actual world records being set.

    We've all had a go at swimming but these competitors are called masters for a reason. Hear about the event, Rikki's unwanted interruption and as always we will rank the atmosphere, food and drink, venue and the action.

    Join Joe and Rikki as we discuss whether snakes can swim and what a psycho swimmer would be like.

    Four down, thirty six to go.
