Anna Woolhouse is a leading British sports journalist and television presenter, best known as the long-standing lead boxing presenter for Sky bports. Renowned for her authority, clarity and composure under pressure, Anna has fronted coverage of some of the most high-profile sporting events of the modern era. Alongside her broadcasting credentials, she is widely hired as a motivational speaker for her ability to translate elite sporting environments into powerful lessons on confidence, resilience and high performance, particularly for female audiences and leadership teams.
Anna’s career began in radio, where she developed the communication skills and presence required to engage large, live audiences. She later joined Sky Sports as an Ice Hockey Reporter, a role that allowed her to broaden her sporting expertise and build credibility across multiple disciplines. Parallel to her broadcasting ambitions, Anna’s background in classical music shaped her discipline and work ethic; she graduated with a degree in music from University of Leeds and also studied as a Junior Exhibitioner at the Guildhall School of Music. This blend of creative training and live broadcasting experience laid the foundation for her confident, assured on-screen style.
In recent years, Anna has continued to cement her reputation as one of the most trusted figures in sports broadcasting. She has presented headline boxing encounters at the very highest level, including globally recognised championship bouts and the widely acclaimed fight of the year in 2024. Beyond boxing, Anna regularly presents across rugby union and league, Formula One, cricket, netball, darts, basketball and ice hockey, and has covered consecutive World Darts Championships in 2024 and 2025, with a return confirmed for 2026. Away from broadcasting, she is a fitness advocate with a highly engaged social media following, sharing workouts and wellbeing content, and she currently serves as an ambassador for Garmin and Slingsby Gin.
Anna is hired as a motivational speaker because she offers far more than media insight. Drawing on her experiences in male-dominated sports, live television pressure, and personal performance discipline, she delivers authentic messages around confidence, preparation and self-belief. Her passion for fitness, female health and balance, combined with her engaging communication style, makes Anna a compelling female motivational speaker who inspires audiences to perform at their best while staying true to themselves.
