PREVIEW – Sports for the unsporty

As a response to being a rubbish athlete, self-appointed Sports Personality of the Year James Hancox has invented his own sports and plans to unveil them to the world one fringe show at a time.

Sports for the unsporty invites those with the heart of an athlete but the skills of a toddler to an interactive comedy show.

It promises to use half the contents of the local pound shop to create scenes of improvised sporty silliness. James’s audience-based sketch aims to make the crowd leave feeling like champions.

Entering the comedy world in 2010 as one half of award-winning duo Abandoman, James has played a whole variety of stages, from London Apollo to Glastonbury Festival, as well as sold-out shows at the Edinburgh, Perth and Adelaide Fringes. He has also appeared on several TV and radio shows, including 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown and The Stephen K Amos Show.

Earlier this year, James was nominated for the Best Comedy Award 2018 at Fringe World Perth.
