Former international athletes Ama Agbeze and Geoff Thompson have been appointed to the board of the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.
Agbeze captained Team England’s netballers to Commonwealth gold at the Gold Coast 2018 Games, while Thompson is five-time former world karate champion.
Their appointments by Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden follow concerns over a lack of diversity among the event’s leadership.

The boards of the two organisations have since proposed three models for consideration to government.
Sunday Standard Sport is in position of a leaked document that the BNSC/BNOC drafted for consideration my sport ministry.
This is after the Minster of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development (MYSC), Tumiso Rakgare, aggressively spearheaded the initiative to merge the two sports bodies to work together.
The first model they have proposed is “
Total merger”. Under this model, BNSC and BNOC will merge into one organisation, which will be a civil entity. Under this model, the board of the new organisation would be elected by National Sport Associations/Federations.
