The Next Round: Trina made a comeback
Show Notes

Trina Gulliver MBE is ten times world darts champion. But drinking nearly ended her career. 

Her sport did not disappoint her, though - with the help of Sporting Chance, the charity founded by Ex-footballer Tony Adams, she got the help she needed to make a comeback.

In this week's episode of The Next Round, we find that what comes next may be more of what you did before - you just may do it a little differently. And why not? If you were good at something, how great might you be now that you have relegated alcohol to the benches? 

Trina Gulliver is a champion at darts - a sport that has its roots in the great British boozer. Her drinking crept up slowly over time, but an intervention from Sporting Chance was nearly too late. She shares what happened to her and how even she is surprised she is playing again.
