A new report indicates that British sport is insufficiently prepared for the growing risks posed by climate change, with associated costs rising. The findings are illustrated by severe flooding at Worcestershire New Road cricket ground, the home of Worcestershire County Cricket Club in Worcester, England. Drone imagery from January 7, 2025, shows floodwater covering the pitch and surrounding spectator stands. The report highlights the need for greater investment in climate resilience across sports infrastructure.
