Leichtathletik: Nach der Hallen-EM in Apeldoorn steht das nächste Highlight vor der Tür. Es geht zur WM nach China! Die Hallensaison geht dort zu Ende. Acht DLV-Athletinnen und -Athleten sind ins chinesische Nanjing gereist. Der Dreispringer Max Heß reiste mit jeder Menge Selbstvertrauen nach Nanjing, denn er ist frischgebackener Hallen-Vize-Europameister. Der Chemnitzer sinnt auf Revanche gegen den Hallen-Europameister Andy Díaz Hernández aus Italien, der ihn in Apeldoorn die Goldmedaille noch aus den Händen riss. Zwsichen Holland und China: wie schön, dass sich Deutschlands bester Dreispringer noch Zeit für ein exklusives Interview mit der „Sportstunde“ genommen hat! Rudern: Die Ruderer lassen aktuell noch ein bisschen auf sich warten. Aber auch da geht es bald wieder los. Wie ist für 2025, dem nacholympischen Jahr, die Erwartungshaltung? Im Deutschen Ruderverband gibt es einen neuen Mann, der die sportliche Verantwortung trägt: Markus Schwarzrock ist neuer Cheftrainer des DRV. Seit dem 01. März im Amt ist es für ihn eine Rückkehr. Die Position des DRV-Cheftrainers bekleidete er bereits fünf Jahre lang von 2012 bis 2017. Die ersten Tage hat er hinter sich. Was Markus Schwarzrock in Zukunft in dieser Funktion vorhat, verrät er in der „Sportstunde“. Flossenschwimmen: Die World Games 2025 im chinesischen Chengdu stehen dieses Jahr an, also sozusagen die olympischen Spiele der nichtolympischen Sportarten. Und im Flossenschwimmen holte 2022 in Alabama Johanna Schikora die Goldmedaille in dieser Sportart. Obwohl sie eher kuriose Erinnerungen daran hat, welche sie uns in der "Sportstunde" erzählt. Zudem macht sie auf eine Crowd Funding-Kampagne aufmerksam, damit sie und das gesamte deutsche Team inklusive Trainer gut vorbereitet nach China zu den World Games reisen kann (www.toyota-crowd.de/worldgames2025). (www.sport-magazin.de) Hier gibt es die Interviews in voller Länge: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/sportstunde-interviews-in-voller-l%C3%A4nge/id1705390264?uo=4 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/00va1TW4YzTYDCGMpkNMOU Website. https://sportstunde-podcast.de/

Mit der Flosse an den Füßen möchte die "Formel 1 des Wassers" olympisch werden! Im August 2025 finden im chinesischen Chengdu die World Games statt. Das sind quasi die olympischen Spiele der nichtolympischen Sportarten. Eine dieser Sportarten ist Flossenschwimmen bzw. Finswimming. Flossenschwimmen ist die schnellste Möglichkeit, sich aus eigener Kraft im Wasser fortzubewegen. Dabei werden so genannte Monoflossen zur Fortbewegung verwendet. Finswimming wurde durch das IOC als olympische Disziplin anerkannt, erschien aber bisher noch nicht im olympischen Programm. Finswimming ist weniger mit der Meerjungfrau verwandt als viel mehr mit den faszinierenden Delphinen. In der Spezialausgabe der "Sportstunde" stellen die "Flossis" Volko Kucher (Cheftrainer TC fez Berlin und Landestrainer am Stützpunkt Berlin), Maxi Teichler (Vorsitzende TC fez Berlin), Johanna Schikora (Gold bei den World Games 2022 und mehrfache Welmeisterin), Lara Gawenda (mehrmalige Deutsche Meisterin) und Rémy Lebeau (französischer Meister) diese aussergewöhnliche Sportart vor, wie sie auf unterschiedlichste Art und Weise zu diesem Sport gekommen sind und welche Skills man als Athlet benötigt, um Flossenschwimmen erfolgreich ausüben zu können. Aber natürlich haben diese Randsportarten vor allem mit der Finanzierung zu kämpfen, denn vor so einem großen Ereignis wie die World Games müssen Trainingslager, Equipment und Reisen finanziert werden, um dann auch bei diesen Weltspielen konkurrenzfähig zu sein. Zu diesem Zweck startete der TC fez Berlin eine Crowd Funding-Kampagne (www.toyota-crowd.de/worldgames2025). Ein wenig Geld fehlt noch, damit die Schwimmerinnen und Schwimmer optimale Bedingungen auf dem Weg zu den World Games haben können. Zudem sind nicht nur in Berlin, sondern in ganz Deutschland, auch sportlich Interessierte, ob jung oder alt, und mögliche Trainer herzlichst in diesem Sport willkommen. Diese Spezial-Folge zum "Flossenschwimmen" wirft einen Rundum-Blick auf die faszinierende Sportart, beschreibt aber auch die Probleme, die solche Randsportarten in Deutschland haben.

La denuncia de las jugadoras de la selección española de flag fútbol tras conocer que podrían perderse los World Games y las consecuencias que esto podría tener de cara a los Juegos Olímpicos. Además, la selección española de fútbol sala se impuso, por siete goles a cero, a Inglaterra en un partido clasificatorio para la Eurocopa de 2026, Gus Pérez, portero de la selección, debutó con la absoluta hoy a sus 45 años.

Sometimes all of the training and preparation in the world doesn't get you to the Paralympic podium. Boccia player Alison Levine experienced that firsthand during the Paris 2024 Paralympics, when tournament bracket design forced her to face the other top player early on in the elimination rounds. Play didn't go her way, and she didn't get the results she wanted. It didn't get better in the mixed doubles tournament, when she and teammate Iulian Ciobanu lost to Thailand in the bronze medal match. Even with the disappointment, Alison's Paris experience was, on the whole, a good one. Along with talking about the tournament and how she regrouped after the Paralympics, Alison tells us about life in the Athletes' Village, how accessible design made life a lot easier for a couple of weeks, and the infamous Paris 2024 chocolate muffin. Learn more about Alison at her website, and follow her on Insta and X. This week, we're also celebrating one year to go until the Milan-Cortina 2026 Paralympics!

Welcome listeners! I'm absolutely thrilled to share this week's episode of "Retirement Rebel Life After 60" with you. Today, I had the honour of chatting with the incredible Alex Rotas, a true pioneer in challenging the stereotypes that surround ageing. Our conversation is one that I believe many of you will find both inspiring and empowering.One of the key subjects we delved into was how Alex uses her photography to combat the often negative and limiting images of older adults that pervade our media. She captures vibrant, active individuals in their sixties, seventies, eighties, and beyond, participating in competitive sports. These images are not just pictures; they are powerful statements that redefine what it means to age. Through her lens, Alex shows the world that being older doesn't mean being inactive or invisible, but rather, it's a time when many continue to thrive and pursue their passions.Another fascinating topic we discussed was Alex's extensive travels to document these amazing individuals. She travels to events like the World Games, photographing athletes who embody the spirit of active ageing. Hearing about her adventures highlighted how important it is to see and celebrate older adults who are challenging the norms and pushing their boundaries. These stories are a testament to the fact that getting older can be a time of endless possibilities and new experiences, and it's essential that these narratives become more visible in our society.Lastly, we explored Alex's compelling film projects, "Older" and "Younger." These documentaries feature older athletes and truly bring their stories to life in a moving and impactful way. As Alex and I talked about these films, it became clear that they are more than just documentaries; they are conversations that challenge viewers to rethink their assumptions about ageing and consider a more nuanced and positive perspective.I invite you to join us in this episode as we celebrate the incredible work of Alex Rotas and the dynamic individuals she showcases through her photography and films. If you're looking for inspiration and proof that life after 60 can be vibrant, active, and full of adventure, this episode is definitely for you.

Coming to you from Equitana in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Warwick interviews Brett Parbery in front of a live audience as a part of the Equitana programming. Brett Parbery was born to ride, growing up in Dorrigo, NSW, in a family deeply immersed in horse culture. His father professionally broke and trained horses, specializing in cattle horse sports like campdrafting and cutting, and Brett was involved in stable life from a young age, helping train horses before and after school. Weekends were spent competing in various equestrian activities, from campdrafting and polocrosse to pony club and agricultural shows, where Brett's passion for rodeo was ignited by watching saddle bronc riding at night-time events. Determined to become a cowboy, Brett pursued saddle bronc riding nationally and internationally from 1989 to 2000, consistently ranking among Australia's top 20 riders. However, his love for training horses led him to transition to dressage, and in 2000, he moved to Europe to train under top professionals before returning home to establish his own stable. Over the years, Brett has excelled in dressage, representing Australia at two World Equestrian Games and earning numerous accolades, including over 30 Australian Championships and a standout 2010 season featuring an 8th-place finish at the World Games in Kentucky. With extensive training under legendary riders like Edward Gal and Ulla Salzgeber, Brett developed a horse-friendly training system, which he now shares through “Performance Riders,” an online education program co-founded with Natalie Foxon to mentor riders of all levels, guiding them from foundational skills to high performance. He lives in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales with his wife Melinda and his son Jake.Wesbite: https://www.brettparbery.com.au/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PerformanceRidersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/parberydressage/Support the showBecome a Patreon Member today!

Send us a textIn our latest Hootworthy interview, we caught up with Luke, a 10th grader at GCA, who's making waves in the gymnastics world. Luke is not just any gymnast; he competes in Trampoline, Double-Mini, and Tumbling at the Junior Elite level. With only three other athletes in the U.S. achieving this level across all three events, Luke's accomplishments are nothing short of extraordinary. You can check out Luke's bio here.One of Luke's standout achievements is being crowned the 2023 Tumbling National Champion at the USA Gymnastics Championships. He also earned a spot on the 2024 U.S. Junior National Tumbling Team, and he's currently ranked 4th in the world in Tumbling for his age group—an impressive feat he secured at the World Age Group Championships in Birmingham, UK. Despite his rigorous training schedule, which includes three-hour daily practices and intense speed programs, Luke manages to balance his academics thanks to the flexibility GCA offers. He often squeezes in schoolwork during lunch breaks and appreciates how understanding his teachers are about his schedule.Luke's journey into gymnastics began when his mom signed him up for a parkour class to help him manage his OCD. A gym coach spotted his potential, and the rest is history. Even with a few stumbles—like the time he fractured his ankle at the gym—Luke has remained committed to mastering gymnastics. Making the national team was his most memorable moment, but he admits to often tripping right after nailing a solid routine.Looking ahead, Luke has his sights set on competing in the Olympics for Trampoline and the World Games for Tumbling. He advises aspiring gymnasts to expect to fall a lot, but don't be too hard on yourself. Learn from the falls, get back up, and keep going. With his achievements and the support from GCA, Luke's story is a testament to what commitment and tenacity can achieve. Stay Hootworthy, Luke!

ABOUT JEANETTE LEE AND HER MEMOIR BLACK WIDOW The "Black Widow", Jeanette Lee, achieved legendary billiards status when she became the top-ranked female pool player in the world during the 1990s, winning over 30 national and international titles. Lee, dressed in black from head-to-toe when she decimated her prey in that span, later had her career be a focus of an ESPN 30-for-30 documentary.In her new book Black Widow: A Memoir (Triumph Books, 8.13.24), Lee looks back at her illustrious career, lifelong struggle with scoliosis, and a public battle with Stage 4 ovarian cancer. Jeanette was 18 years old when she walked into a New York City pool hall and became enamored by the elegant geometry of the game. Before long, she was an unmistakable figure on the international competition circuit, dressed head-to-toe in black, stalking the billiards table and gazing down her cue as if tracking her prey.In this new memoir, the woman nicknamed 'The Black Widow' opens up about her legendary career and the rich, unpredictable life she's woven around it. Lee details her upbringing in a Korean-American household in Brooklyn, her single-minded drive to reach the pinnacle of her sport, and her unlikely entry into the realm of mainstream celebrity in an era where female athletes rarely got their share of the limelight.Lee also reflects on her lifelong struggle with scoliosis, which necessitated over twenty operations during her playing career; her public battle with Stage 4 ovarian cancer; and the communities that gave her strength throughout. Written with warmth and candor, this is the definitive story of a true icon. JEANETTE LEE BIO JEANETTE LEE, the “Black Widow” of pool Jeanette Lee has been dubbed the “Black Widow”  because of her killer instincts at the pool table. Normally, she has a calm, sweet demeanor but with a cue in her hand, everything changes. After picking up the sport at 18, Jeanette quickly rose in the world of pool. She turned professional at the age of 21 and became the No. 1 ranked female player in the world by 23. She went on to receive the Women's Professional Billiard Association (WPBA) Sportsperson of the Year Award in 1998 and won the gold medal for the United States at the 2001 World Games in Japan. While playing the sport and after retiring, Jeanette remains a strong proponent of women's athletics and specifically women in pool. Early on, she would travel from place-to-place recruiting women to play in tournaments alongside her. The women's sport was hard to grow, but the Black Widow was relentless.Get the book: https://a.co/d/3KGHBlVGet an autographed copy of the book:https://caromsports.com/products/black-widow-memoirBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.

Walter Cariazo joins Omar and Eric Helms on Iron Culture to discuss his decade-long journey in powerlifting. He's won the 93kg National Championship twice and the 105kg National Championship once in Canada and has had the opportunity to represent Canada twice at the IPF World Championship, most recently in Lithuania in June. In this most recent competition, he was a dark horse for the podium, as he placed 4th in the 105kg class, getting the opportunity to pull for the bronze medal position, which would have secured him a spot in the first World Games in 2025 to include the raw division. While this in and of itself is worth highlighting, most impressively, Walter has continually progressed in his decade in the sport, despite a busy, demanding work and life schedule. He is a full-time medical radiation technologist, in addition to working as a videographer (you may have seen him on Omar's YouTube channel) and photographer. The perennial lifelong lifter, Walter embodies the spirit of iron culture as a “blue-collar powerlifter” who is optimizing his lifting pursuits within the constraints of life - approaching the pinnacle of the sport while doing so.
