Description

Sam Schofield is someone who lives and breathes cricket.

He plays for his local team; he’s head of cricket at Trinity School in Croydon; and he’s part of the coaching set up for the England Physical Disability side as well.

He’s also a cracking guest, and we’re delighted to have him joining us for this week’s episode of the BBC’s LGBT Sport Podcast.

There’s loads to get into in this one; where Sam’s love of cricket came from (including the unfortunate breaking of a window with a shot at school!); his work with the England PD side and his pride in wearing the Three Lions; coming out at a Test match; the importance of LGBT visibility, in sport and in schools; and plenty of other good stuff as well.

We really think you’ll like this episode – which, by the way, is the first ‘at home’ recording as a result of coronavirus restrictions! - and we're massively grateful that Sam took the time to join us for it.
