Polly James

Polly is an award-winning radio DJ and event host, who currently presents her weekend afternoon show on Radio X – her Saturday and Sunday shows are audience winners with her infectious Welsh charm and knowledge of guitar music.

Polly is one of the lead reporters on Sky Sports and their Darts coverage and you’ll see her every Christmas and New Year at Ally Pally, getting in the thick of it with the darts community.

The ‘live’ environment is where Polly is in her element, whether that’s a Q&A with Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury or hosting live music events for Ladbrokes Live and NME. Born and bred in Cardiff, she’s a natural, where nothing phases her, whether she is in front of a stadium full of people or presenting social media coverage for global brands.

Polly’s professional career started at community radio stations like Afan FM and Bridge FM. After working for Nation Radio Wales, she was picked up for national stations, including Absolute Radio and Capital.

Across her broadcasting career, she has covered sports including boxing, darts, football, and rugby, and she has presented for Unibet on social media.
