On page 10, our <\/em>opinion columnist Megan Gaen asks ‘Where were the sportswomen when I needed them?’ and says she’s thankful for the rising representation of female sports today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On page 14 ironing out the myths and the realities of life after the final whistle, we speak to three coaching champions: former international hockey player for Scotland, Nikki Lloyd, who now coaches Blackheath & Elthamians men\u2019s team; former director of UK Coaching and tennis enthusiast, Emma Atkins; and Welsh Cycling coach and two-time World champion, Rachel Draper (p.14-17). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This issue dives into the mental health of female athletes and how it affects their performance and much more on pages 20-22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
