Clevedon's Sporting Heroes

This recently published book Clevedon's Sporting Heroes  profiles 50 of the outstanding sporting personalities connected with the Town since 1945. Within the text over 650 sportspeople are mentioned through comment or photographs. The town is home to two former world champions David Bryant and Bob Anderson, channel swimmer Steve Price, New World Karate Champion, Rory Daniels and sailing prodigy Nathan Batchelor.
