Listen now
Description
For 125 years, the annual Army v Navy match was exclusively played by men. But, in 2003, women were finally given the opportunity to take part in this historic event that brings the military community together.  Fear Naught podcast host, James Banks, sat down with Sergeant Heidi Silcox and last year's player of the match, Leftenant Sally Bellhouse, from the Army team, as well as Leading Physical Training Instructor Suz Badger and Sub Leftenant Rebecca “Baddis” Addis from the Navy team. They were also joined by guest co-host Cath Brazier, Deputy Sport Editor at BFBS.  They will go head-to-head on Saturday 13th May, but only one team can take home the legendary title.
