#13 Great British Bosses: David Joy, British Canoeing - a podcast by Anything but Footy

This is Great British Bosses from Anything but Footy - the series where we profile the men and women responsible for running sport in this country - from grassroots participation to those medal moments at Olympic, Paralympic and elite level.
At the Rio 2016, British canoeists won 2 golds and 2 silvers in the Olympics and also topped the medal table as the sport made its Paralympics debut. Just before that, David Joy arrived, and set about delivering fundamental changes after an independent review into British Canoeing was instigated by UK Sport, following allegations from athletes. And after his time at Scottish Athletics and England Golf, he also had to bring together the 'paddle' community - British Canoeing is the governing body for all these disciplines - slalom, sprint, marathon, surf kayak, canoe polo, freestyle, white water rafting, wild water racing, ocean racing, outrigger canoeing and canoe lifeguards!!!This is Great British Bosses from Anything but Footy.
