Olympic champion Sally Gunnell joins us on Sportswomen
Last Updated: 09/08/16 3:42pm
Olympic gold medallist Sally Gunnell joins a special 'Sportsmums' programme on Sportswomen on Tuesday.
With the 2016 Games underway, the International Olympic Committee recognised that there was an increase in the number of female athletes, and therefore more pregnant women in top level sport.
In May, the IOC published the first of five papers on the subject of pregnancy and childbirth in elite athletes - but as we've been finding out, governing bodies in this country still have some work to do.
We also have plenty of contributions from across the sporting spectrum with Jessica Ennis-Hill, Jo Pavey, Catriona Matthew giving us their view - all three are competing in Rio at this summer's Games.
Judy Murray, Sarah Storey, Anna Watkins and Mary King are among the other names we hear from and joining us for the show to discuss all the issues is Olympic gold medallist and mum-of-three Gunnell, who won memorable gold in Barcelona in 1992.
We will also have all the latest headlines from the Rio Olympics, and will announce the winner of the Sportswoman of the Month for July.
Watch Sportswomen on Sky Sports News HQ at 11.30am on Tuesday.
