Here's the transcript:

Interviewer: Hello, and welcome to the show. Today we have Hank Rogers from the new sports centre in the studio. Welcome, Hank.

Hank: Thank you for having me!

Interviewer: Hank, tell us a bit about the sports centre. How is the Bank Sports Centre different from others?

Hank: Well, it’s different and it’s the same! Let me explain. So many favourite sports are there, for example, the gym, the swimming pool, classes - but we also want to introduce people to other sports activities.

Interviewer: Tell me more!

Hank: Imagine doing yoga in a room where the temperature is a hot 40 degrees. That's called hot yoga! We also have aerial yoga - that is yoga that you do in the air! It’s a lot of fun!

Interviewer: OK, well, that’s good. Now what about team sports - are there any new sports for me?

Hank: Well, we're also able to have an indoor ice rink in winter. That's just great so we can have ice skating or ice hockey for instance.

Interviewer: Now that sounds great! And in summer?

Hank: In the summer we move the roof back so that you can see the sky, and we put sand down!

Interviewer: Oh, wow! That's amazing!

Hank: I know, and we can do beach volleyball! We're really excited about that.

Interviewer: And you have an open day soon?

Hank: Yes, on Saturday. It’s a day for all the family and it’s free. So everyone will have the opportunity to try out all these new sports and activities. We open at 9 in the morning and will be there until the evening. And we have some free prizes!

Interviewer: That sounds great! So it sounds like a good place...
