About the event
Unsung sports is a project that celebrates sports in Leeds, not the sports that talk the loudest but the sports that are a well kept secret. For the past 6 months. Writer/songwriter Peter Spafford has been recording interviews, filming, taking photographs and writing poetry and music. This culminating event is a chance for everyone from the world of table tennis, Gaelic football, and roller skating to come together and check out the final results !
