Portrait Ring
A full-screen roster where black and white portraits sit around a large ring. Scroll, or click a portrait, and the ring turns the next athlete up into the top slot: the outline on the slot closes on the leaving portrait and opens around the new one as it comes back to full colour, while the name swaps and the background photo cuts over to their sport.
