Press release -
Join the Olympic stars at next month's Sports Quiz
Olympic athletes Karen Pickering, Mohamed Sbihi and Steve Williams have all confirmed they will be at next month's Sports Quiz at Lord's Cricket Ground to support SportsAid.
Karen is a four-time Olympian who held four world titles over the course of a phenomenal swimming career. Mohamed competed at London 2012 where he won a bronze medal for rowing in the men's eight. Now retired from the sport, fellow rower Steve Williams is a double Olympic champion who famously won his first title with Matthew Pinsent and James Cracknell in Athens in 2004.
Tickets to this ever-popular event are still available so there is still time for you to join SportsAid and three stars of British sport for a lively night out in aid of a great cause. Join us on June 4 for a fun evening of food, drinks and unbeatable sports entertainment at one of the toughest sports quizzes going. The next generation needs you.
To get you in the mood for what's in store, here's a quick teaser question from SportsAid's quiz master...
Almost 20 years ago, in 1996 David Beckham scored what was later voted the 'goal of the decade' by lobbing the goalkeeper from behind the halfway line. Do you know which London club he scored that goal against?
- Wimbledon
- Tottenham Hotspur
- West Ham
