Slovakia Today, English Language Current Affairs Programme from Slovak Radio

The Wednesday show is filled with winter sports - Olympic glory as well as sports that are very down to Earth, or better said, down to cold water. Slovak sport fans keep their eyes glued to the Olympic events underway in China, despite their biggest medal favorite, Petra Vlhová has already left Beijing. There is still enough winter action and stories to enjoy. Such as the story of the rising star of Slovak ice-hockey, 17-year old Juraj Slafkovský. Later in the show we will also visit the Slovak Olympic and Sports Museum and experience some of the historic Winter Olympics. And perhaps also take a dip in the ice cold water with swimmers, for whom winter is the best season to put on their swimsuit and tackle the nearby pond, or even the English Channel.
