Our History



ITG was launched in 2005 by the distinguished British sports journalist, Duncan Mackay. The website's inception followed the momentous announcement that London had been selected as the host city for the 2012 Summer Olympics. Originally known as insidethegames.com, the platform adopted its current moniker, insidethegames.biz, in 2009.



Mackay served as Editor-in-Chief from ITG's inception until October 31, 2023, when he and co-founder Sarah Bowron embarked on new ventures within the sports and media industries.



Following Mackay's departure, the reins of ITG's editorial leadership have been entrusted to David Rubio, a prominent Spanish sports journalist:
