Simple answer – no. But I think it failed to show the realistic side of sport and the costs and dedication involved!
It’s not just a case of turning up at your local track and getting a coach and a sponsorship deal.. There’s also lots of support required from sporting bodies and especially families.
If we really want more sporting participation I think there needs to be proper structured and accessible, (affordable) provisions… Obvious? Maybe….
