Sports is one of my great loves in life. “Maybe times are changing, this team is changing things!” can always draw a tear from me, as can, “the man who knows the true meaning of the word ‘survival’!”. As a Newcastle and England fan, my love of sport has always been wrapped up in a sort of bittersweet disappointment, although there are glimmers of hope on the horizon for both. Discovering that I am transgender has seen sport as a very concept snatched away from me, and it wasn’t until Nintendo Switch Sports that I realised how much I missed it.
