79 / ,® -® ,-/® -1 ,®- Former Arsenal youngster Jordan Wynter has become City’s first signing of the summer. The 19-year-old joins on a two-year deal having turned down an extended contract at Emirates Stadium, after initially signing professional terms last year. A combative central midfield player, Wynter will go straight into Sean O’Driscoll’s first team plans for the new season. City head O’Driscoll said: “Jordan is a versatile player schooled at Arsenal Football Club. “He is comfortable in possession, strong physically and a welcome addition to the club as we try to change the dynamic of the squad.

Bristol Rovers have offered eight players new deals after just missing out on a top-half finish in npower League Two. Boss John Ward, who himself recently signed a new one-year rolling deal at the Memorial Stadium, made clear his plans for next season with a number of young players offered terms. One of those is 19-year-old Ellis

Harrison, who made his debut under Ward in January and went on to feature 13 times during the season, scoring three goals. Elsewhere, German Fabian Broghammer, Oliver Norburn, Seanan Clucas, Ollie Clarke, Mitch Golding and Jordan Goodard, all under-24, look set to stay on. Having been awarded a one-year extension last summer, Ward has offered a new deal to defender

Danny Woodards, who is still sidelined. Fellow injured players Scott Bevan and Adam Virgo will not be kept on, but are staying with the club while they continue rehabilitation.

Team Bath judo player Emmanuel Nartey picked up a bronze medal in the under-73kg class at last month’s African Championships in Mozambique.

The Ghanaian, a London 2012 Olympian, dedicated the medal to his late father who died ten years ago. “It was an emotional week for me, but I got there in the end,� said Nartey, who picked up his medal a day after his 30th birthday.

,Ž -Ž 9Ž 8 * Ž Gloucestershire Cricket have enjoyed a steady start to the 2013 LV=County Championship Division Two campaign, after last year’s nightmare season whch saw them finish bottom of the table. Despite a first match dogged by poor weather, Gloucestershire put in an encouraging display to pick up nine points against Essex in Chelmesford. But all momentum was quickly lost in their opening home game of the season against Northamptonshire, the visitors strolling to a nine wicket victory. Gloucestershire successfully put that disappointment behind them and responded with a superb performance at Leicester, picking up their first win of the season with a nine-wicket victory, including a first century from Michael Klinger. He followed up with an incredible 131 not out in their next game, against Hampshire in Bristol, but Gloucestershire were forced to settle for a draw.

A team from Brislington Ladies have defied the odds to go ten years unbeaten as they progressed through the club’s age groups. The girls, who began as under10s in 2003, have racked up an incredible 180 games undefeated over the course of the decade. Most of the team’s original members are now approaching 18, and took the team to the Somerset County Women’s League Division One and cup double this season.

Bristol Academy have started their Women’s Super League season in the best possible fashion with three wins from three leaving them top of the table. Ahead of this weekend’s FA Cup final with Arsenal, victories over Chelsea, Doncaster and Everton have rocketed the Vixens into first position, as they remain one of only two unbeaten sides in the division. Goals from Jemma Rose and top-scorer Natalia Teresa Pablos Sanchon completed the latest victory, a 2-0 success over previous leaders Chelsea at the Stoke Gifford Stadium, and manager Mark Sampson spoke of his delight after full-time. “We didn’t think about going top – or the fact we have the Women’s FA Cup final coming up – we just concentrated on playing Chelsea. That was the best performance I’ve seen from us for a long, long time,” he said. “If we play like that every week I’ll be a very happy manager. That’s the benchmark we have set for ourselves now.”

Any Bristol City supporter will tell you that it would be a hard job to fill Albert Adomah’s boots. But one City fan had the chance to do precisely that when he won a pair of Albert’s footwear in a recent "/ " ®-*",/! competition. Wayne Sargent, who was recently diagnosed with leukaemia, won the fantastic prize in the first edition of our new digital sports magazine and annoyed his partner by constantly wearing them around the house for the first few days! However, sanity was soon restored as Wayne explained: “I thoroughly enjoyed reading the first edition of "/ " ®-*",/!so I was delighted when I heard I’d won a prize just for subscribing; the fact that it was Albert’s boots was all the more pleasing.” Wayne then decided that Albert’s boots were indeed too big to fill so he decided to auction them off at a fundraising event set up by his friends in aid of a leukaemia charity. The boots made a tidy sum that will help Wayne and his young family in these difficult times. We send continued good wishes to Wayne as he battles his illness.

pair of prize winners – Dave Plummer, with his two children, and Ben Orr with sons Freddie and Jacob – headed off to Swindon’s Link Centre to watch Bristol Pitbulls take on Cardiff Devils in a tasty Severnside ice hockey match. The match, which ended in an entertaining 5-5 draw, proved to be a great family outing. Dave, whose children are 11 and seven, said “I was very impressed with the venue and the noisy atmosphere. It was a good family evening out and we’ll be

taking advantage of the £15 family tickets next time.” Ben’s sons are six and four and were excited to go having played ice hockey on the Wii! Ben explained: “The Pitbulls play in Swindon, following the closure of the Bristol Ice Rink, but its only 45 minutes to get here. The boys loved the music, the lights and the razzmatazz and the game was a good one. Three periods of 20 minutes works well with children; it’s fast and furious but with enough breaks to use the facilities.” 9®¶Ç ² / 11

watch CAMERON HERRING Born Tredegar, 15 July 1994 Sport Cricket Position Wicketkeeper, right-hand batsman Team Gloucestershire County Cricket Club What they say “Cameron is a talented young man. He’s a brilliant fielder, he can bat and he’s going to be a very good wicketkeeper. He’s got a tremendous attitude and work ethic and works hard on his game.” Former Gloucestershire and England wicketkeeper Jack Russell

Thirty-two years ago this summer a 17-year-old wicketkeeper from Stroud made his debut for Gloucestershire, after getting permission to miss classes at college. While it would be unfair to compare any emerging Gloucestershire cricketer to the now legendary Jack Russell, it was difficult not to draw similarities when the 18-year-old Herring was a surprise selecton for Gloucestershire’s opening LV=Championship game of the season at Essex.

After playing in the second XI last season the county moved quickly to award him a one-year scholarship and two-year professional contract. Now Herring has managed to edge his way in front of Gareth Roderick and Richard Coughtrie to become the county’s first-choice keeper in first-class matches; South Africa born Roderick so far being preferred in the limited overs format.

A compact and agile keeper – who took a startling catch on home debut against Northamptonshire to help The Tredegar-born gloveman originally joined the club’s dismiss Kyle Coetzer – the young Welshman is also a Academy after impressing in Welsh club cricket, including right-hand batsman of some potential, top scoring with scoring a big hundred for Newport against Swansea. 43 in the first innings of the same game.

MX on the beach

Weston-super-Mare was anything but quiet on the weekend of May 18th/19th as the second round of the Red Bull Pro Nationals motocross championships came to the North Somerset resort. The event, one of seven rounds due to take place in 2013, attracted more than 10,000 spectators over the twoday spectacle. They were entertained by some competitive racing as well as freestyle motocross stars and special areas where children as young as five could try the sport out. There were also children’s TV characters there along with stunt riders, BMX displays, soft play areas and even a trials display from multiple world champion Dougie Lampkin. The marquee races took place in the Red Bull MX1 and MX2 series, which see world class riders fight over three races in each of the seven rounds. The Weston leg of the event is unique as it takes place on the sandy expanse of the town’s beach rather than the traditional grass track surface. This gives the event organisers a week of work ahead of the racing to sculpt a course on the sands. Kristian Whatley leads the MX1 title race after two rounds having won the second race this weekend while the MX2 battle is currently being led by Steve Lenoir who also increased his championship lead. Ominous for Whatley though is the return to form of Durham’s double champion Brad Anderson who moved up to fourth in the title race with his best show of the year. Other victors at the beach track were James Harrison (Rookies), Jay Hague (BW85), Charlie Cole (SW85), Rossi Beard (65cc), Lewis Gregory (125cc 2 stroke Expert) and Scooter Webster (125cc 2 stroke Junior). Attention now turns to Culham Park, Oxfordshire on June 29th/30th; the same venue that hosts the exciting final round in mid-September. For local fans of the sport, more good news came as the event was given the go-ahead to return next year, when they will be hoping for a repeat of the favourable weather conditions that made this year’s event such a success.

Arsenal v Bristol Academy, Sunday May 26th, 3pm :5 KcaYb·g 7id :]bU` ?YYdacUh GhUX]ia 8cbWUghYf The 2011 finalists meet again with Arsenal looking to claim their 12th cup win, following their 2-0 win over Bristol Academy in Coventry two years ago. This should make Arsenal – who feature reigning PFA Women’s Player of the Year Kim Little in their line-up – hot favourites. But Bristol Academy – fired by their Spanish strikeforce Laura Del Rio (picrured( and Natalia – go into the big game top of the FA Women’s Super League with three wins out of three. By contrast the Gunners – who defeated Nottingham Forest, Birmingham City and Liverpool to reach this stage – lost their opening game 4-0, and are out of the Champions League. Could this be the chance then for Mark Sampson’s Bristol Academy – who beat Everton, Doncaster and Lincoln on their way to the final – to claim their first major piece of silverware since their formation in 1998?

ONE-DAY AMBITION Somerset v Glamorgan YB40 Group C match (one-day, 1.45pm), Taunton

After narrowly missing out on qualification for the CB40 sumi-finals last season, Somerset will be looking to go at least one better this time round especially given a disappointing start in the four-day game. Marcus Trescothick’s side boast a fornmidable batting line-up at full strength including England hot shots James Hildreth, Craig Kieswetter and Jos Buttler. And with all-rounder Peter Trego (pictured) leading one-day run scorer in the country, Somerset sat top of Group C with three wins from three at the end of May.
