Summary
COI synopsis: Whatever happened to the true blue British sportsman? Granted, there are soccer, rugby, cricket and tennis fans a million, but what does sport mean to Mr Average? Michele Brown meets Roger Bannister, Chairman of the Sports Council, at the opening of a new concept in sports centres designed to make ‘Sport For All’ more than mere wishful thinking.
