Kensington Palace
9 June 2016
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It is an absolute pleasureto be here
with you tonight to celebrate SportsAid’s 40thanniversary.
Some of you may know that I love sport. I love cheering on teams and
athletes that I ampassionate about. I love the physical challenge sport presents
and the mental strength it gives usall. And I love the way it so often brings
people together to work as part of a team.
I suspect many of you in this room may feel the same. The brilliance of
SportsAid is in reallyunderstanding just how much athletic competition gives to
our country as a whole. By investing inyoung sporting talent, they ensure that
there is a strong pipeline of inspirational heroes.
These athletes then serve as motivators to everyone in the UK to get
involved, get active, andembrace the power of sport to make us happier and
healthier.
With little over 50 days to go until the Games begin in Rio, the next
Olympiad is almost here. As wedid in London in 2012, we will see a new
generation of sporting stars emerge into the spotlight.
We cannot wait to meet the next SportsAid champions – the next Chris Hoys
and KatherineGraingers who will remind us all of the magic and power of
sport.
So, thank you all for supporting the incredible work of SportsAid. I am
immensely proud to be theirPatron and I can’t wait to cheer on our team
competing in Rio.
I do hope you enjoy tonight’s very special occasion.
Thank you.
