Hosted by Caroline Barker, the show will take a detailed look at how women's sport has been affected in recent months.
Alongside them will be Joanna Coates, UK Athletics chief executive, and Tammy Parlour MBE, co-founder of the Women's Sport Trust, as the panel look at how the trajectory of women's sport has been impacted by COVID-19, whether this period of time could provide opportunities for women's sport and what the next steps must be.
