IHUK have announced the fantastically named “Clifton Hugh Lancelot de Verdon Wrottesley, 14th Baronet, 6th Baron Wrottesley” as chairman.

Wrottesley is a former Irish international Skeleton racer, coming 4th in the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics.

He was chair of British Skeleton from 2012-17 & board member for British Bobsleigh & Skeleton Association from 2012-19, sports we’ve been strong at internationally.

He replaces the outgoing Richard Greiveson who, I’m sure we all agree, has done fantastically to deliver a top division GB side.

Sounds like a positive appointment with experience of overseeing a minority sport in the UK and delivering success on the global stage.

I tried to embed your link SB but for some reason it wouldn't work for me, so I've done it in this post, makes it a little easier to keep on the thread..

Interesting listen. Saying all the right words. Hope he can pull it off.
