Alan Is joined by James and Becky as they dive into the big question facing British Obstacle Sports: should World Obstacle be dissolved?
James and Becky broke down why the board backs the move — unified global governance, stronger funding pathways, and a clearer professional future for the sport.
They tackled the big worries head‑on too, from autonomy and debt to how OCR would sit within UIPM, stressing that the sport's identity and culture stay firmly intact.
Alan added his own perspective.
The conversation also explored where British Obstacle Sports currently stands in its recognition journey and what collaboration with Pentathlon GB could look like.
The episode wraps with how members can get involved: upcoming Q&A sessions, what to expect at the EGM, and how to cast their vote on one of the most important decisions in the sport's history.
