It鈥檚 the largest amateur rugby tournament in the world, and it鈥檚 named after a hero of 9/11.
And for this episode of the 大象传媒鈥檚 LGBT Sport Podcast, we鈥檙e looking at the remarkable story of the Bingham Cup.
It鈥檚 another documentary-style show, as we look at the lives of Mark Bingham and Alice Hoagland; the growth of the tournament itself; and how the rise of the Cup is inextricably linked with the growth of inclusive rugby.
It鈥檚 a poignant listen about a brilliant event, and we think it鈥檒l stick with you for a long time.
