New wheelchair sports hub opens in Carmarthenshire

A new wheelchair sports hub is helping to break down barriers and promote active lifestyles. The hub is based at St Clears Leisure Centre in Carmarthenshire and forms part of Actif's Focus Sport Programme. It offers weekly inclusive sessions for people of all abilities to get involved in wheelchair sports, regardless of whether they use a wheelchair in daily life. Councillor Hazel Evans, cabinet member for regeneration, leisure, culture and tourism, said: "We're proud to support this exciting new initiative that champions inclusion and community participation. "The St Clears hub shows what's possible when we work together to create opportunities that truly welcome everyone, regardless of ability. "It's not just about sport – it's about building confidence, friendships, and a stronger, more inclusive Carmarthenshire." The sessions are delivered in partnership with Basketball Wales, Disability Sport Wales, and the Scarlets Community Foundation. Participants can try wheelchair basketball, tennis, and rugby on a three-week rotation. Sessions take place every Wednesday at 5pm, with all equipment—including sports wheelchairs—provided. While the hub is designed primarily for wheelchair users, able-bodied participants are also encouraged to take part, making it a space where family and friends can enjoy the experience together. Hywel Thomas, basketball focus sport lead for Actif, said: "This new hub is a fantastic step forward for inclusive sport in Carmarthenshire. "We want to give everyone, regardless of ability or experience, the opportunity to try wheelchair sports, have fun, and build confidence. "Thanks to our partners, we're able to provide a high-quality experience that's accessible to all." The sessions aim to promote physical activity, inclusion, and community engagement in a supportive and welcoming environment. Anyone interested in taking part can sign up via the Actif app or contact the Actif Communities team for more information.

Why the end of free-to-air Tour de France coverage in the UK is a concerning moment for cycling

There is unlikely to be any great fanfare when a British sporting television institution ends after four decades on Sunday evening. To be frank, not a huge number of the sport-watching public in the UK will even notice, especially given the curtain-call clashes with the women's Euro 2025 final between England and Spain live on another channel. Advertisement The Tour de France very seldom has the fixed glare of the nation aimed in its direction, and that appears to be one of the reasons why the free-to-air coverage of it is ending this year. Next year, for the first time since 1984, the Tour won't be broadcast at all on free-to-air terrestrial UK television, having been shown (either via highlights or full race coverage) on Channel 4 from 1985 to 2001 and then on ITV since 2002. The exclusive rights have instead exclusively been snapped up by Warner Bros Discovery, which owns TNT Sports. Satellite/digital coverage has been an excellent viewing option for many years on Eurosport — which was gobbled up as part of TNT Sports earlier this year — but now it will be the only option. An option that costs £30.99 ($41.67) a month. 'I gathered that for the last couple of years it had started to make a slight loss for ITV, so it was always vulnerable to cost-cutting,' the channel's lead Tour commentator Ned Boulting told Cycling Weekly recently, adding that although 600,000 viewers had watched the opening day of this year's race, numbers have been dwindling consistently since the height of the UK's Bradley Wiggins-inspired cycling boom in 2012, when 3.6million watched him become the first Briton to win the event. Two years later, the race started on English soil in Yorkshire, with the first three days around the UK drawing roadside crowds of almost five million and benefiting the British economy to the tune of an estimated £150million. "We became attached at the hip, we did everything together, we didn't realise it" Phil Liggett on Paul Sherwen, and David Saunders. — ITV Cycling (@itvcycling) July 21, 2025 However, despite six of seven Tour de France races from 2012 to 2018 being won by British riders from the Team Sky stable (four for Chris Froome, one each for Wiggins and Geraint Thomas) amid unparalleled success that included Mark Cavendish winning more Tour stages than anyone in the race's long, glorious history, cycling remains a fringe sport in the UK. Advertisement It's still not a part of the nation's sporting DNA — and the absence of terrestrial coverage of the sport's biggest and best race means that is unlikely to change anytime soon. Not that its popularity or otherwise is the sole reason for ITV electing not to pay to show it next year. Television rights are expensive and the UK's two biggest sports, football and cricket, hardly have any live matches on terrestrial TV these days either, save for the FA Cup and the Hundred, neither of which is positioned near the pinnacle of their respective games. The lack of live free coverage certainly hasn't impacted how many people want to watch those sports, as sold-out stadiums for Premier League football or England Test cricket attest. However, cycling is different, and its lack of visibility and accessibility poses questions over its future, both in terms of a sport to watch and to take part in. There are parallels with cricket, which reached a high point in its national popularity in 2005, when more than eight million people watched England win the Ashes against visiting arch-rivals Australia for the first time in 18 years. That was the year Channel 4 lost the rights and England matches vanished from free-to-air TV screens. The most recent Ashes series in England two years ago was watched by a record audience for Sky Sports of 2.12million, but that's six million fewer than 2005. Even more importantly, the number of people playing cricket has decreased in recent times, with market data specialist Statista noting that participation dropped from 428,000 in 2009 to 278,600 in 2016. The most recent figures show a jump back up, to 358,600. In 1985, when Tour coverage first appeared on UK screens on Channel 4, there were three British riders in the race (Sean Yates, Robert Millar and Paul Sherwen). Pascal Gabriel (Stubbleman) rode up Mont Ventoux and converted the data into music; The Ventoux Trilogy ⛰️🎶 — ITV Cycling (@itvcycling) July 21, 2025 This year, there were 11 Brits on the start line and, while there is not necessarily a direct correlation between free TV coverage and more riders from the UK in the race, there is enough anecdotal evidence to suggest that cycling being shown on terrestrial television played a big role in inspiring the likes of David Millar, Tom Pidcock and Oscar Onley, who have all spoken of it being part of their introduction to the sport. Advertisement That introduction will have included the warm and familiar figure of presenter Gary Imlach, who has been involved with Tour coverage since the Channel 4 days. Phil Liggett — who still commentates on the race for U.S. broadcaster Peacock — and his old friend, the late Sherwen, were a popular commentary duo for many years, before that baton passed to Boulting and David Millar, while journalists/interviewers Daniel Friebe and Matt Rendell poke microphones in riders' faces as part of top-level coverage that has been honed and perfected over many years and is easily accessible via television, or the ITV website and app. The voice of cycling, Phil Liggett: Part One — ITV Cycling (@itvcycling) July 15, 2025 It offers a different style to TNT Sports, which goes for a more in-depth approach via excellent anchor Orla Chennaoui in post-race analysis show The Breakaway. Not that there aren't grumbles about TNT, primarily for its number of advert breaks. Subscribers had previously had the option to watch races ad-free in full, and while that option is still available via their split-screen feature, it isn't the case via the normal regular stream. There is also the cost. Eurosport was £6.99 per month for all the cycling coverage you could wish for; TNT Sports costs almost five times that. There is an argument that TNT can attract new viewers to the sport via people who already subscribe for its football (predominantly the Champions League but also some Premier League matches), rugby union, tennis, snooker and SailGP, but for many that price will simply prove prohibitive. In 1999, Gary visited figurine collector, Edward Pemzec 🚴🎞️ — ITV Cycling (@itvcycling) July 15, 2025 Signing up for Sky Sports (via Now TV) and TNT Sports will cost you almost £800 a year. Add in DAZN for another £180 annually and then three of the common streaming services, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+, and you're talking almost £1,400 going out of your bank account every 12 months. That's completely unfeasible for many households. Advertisement Boulting and David Millar have pledged to continue to offer their own analysis next year via a live on-the-road video podcast, but otherwise it's the end for coverage that millions have grown to love over decades. To lose Millar from mainstream cycling coverage in particular feels like a serious misstep, given his passion for the sport and the way he can draw in a novice with his layman explanations of cycling's many nuances. In 2027, the Tour will return to the UK, beginning with a Grand Depart in Scotland's capital Edinburgh. The race's general director Christian Prudhomme has offered hope it will be shown on terrestrial television, saying earlier this year: 'I do hope, and I do believe that the stages in the UK will be live and free to air in 2027. There will be discussions. We're optimistic.' It feels like an important issue to sort out. Otherwise, it's not a stretch to say the next generation of Onleys and Yates' may never appear. The Tour de France gets inexorably bigger every single year, but in the UK it might be about to get quite a bit smaller.

📹 Again? Abel kicks broadcaster's microphone as Palmeiras win, watch here

One of the most successful coaches not only of Palmeiras, but of Brazilian football, Abel Ferreira continues to "face his demons" on the sidelines. This Saturday (26), even with a 1 x 0 victory over Grêmio, for the 17th round of the Brasileirão, the Portuguese coach got irritated with the refereeing... (...) and, even with the confirmation of the victory, he left the Allianz Parque field kicking the microphone placed on the edge of the field by the broadcaster that holds the rights to broadcast the match. In the best "straightforward" mode, the Portuguese coach made it clear his dissatisfaction with the Allianz Parque pitch. In the "field and ball", Abel Ferreira continues to show competence at Palmeiras, which achieved its third consecutive victory and is now close to the leader Cruzeiro and the runner-up Flamengo. See the updated Brasileirão table by clicking here! And, with Abel Ferreira at its helm, Verdão continues to establish itself as a "bogeyman" in Brazilian football. At least, when it comes to direct confrontations against the "G-12" of national football. Palmeiras has more victories than defeats against 11 of the 12 biggest clubs in Brazil.
