Celebrating diversity in sport is the National Sporting Heritage's theme for 2022. Held on September 30, the annual event is used to champion all sporting heritage here in Wales.
Organisers of the day hope to see people celebrate their sport, their sporting heritage and the stories and collections that come from it. Beginning in 2014 with just a handful of activities available, it has grown considerably ever since its initial celebration.
In Wales, many inclusive based grassroots teams are getting involved with the celebrations, including Cardiff Baseliners, an inclusive LGBT+ tennis club which was founded this year. “I really want to build on the fantastic inclusive sports clubs we have already in Wales, and getting more people interested in tennis at the same time is a bonus. I’m really excited," Neil Roberts, founder of the Cardiff Baseliners said.
