Gateshead to host its second Diamond League event
The Diamond league will be held at a different venue than originally planned, switching from London to Gateshead.
The reason for this is due to the cost of renovating London Stadium from a football stadium to an athletics one.
This event could be the last one for many athletes before this year’s Olympics in Tokyo.
Dina Asher-Smith, who is Britain's 200m World Champion, will headline the competition on July 13th.
This will be the second time the town has hosted the Diamond League after it was chosen to hold the game last weekend instead of Rabat in Morocco.
Netball fans return to Superleague matches
Fans will return to live netball matches for the first time in over a year. The Netball Superleague clashes between Celtic Dragon and London Pulse, as well as Severn Stars and Team Bath this evening will welcome 1,000 spectators to the Copper Box Arena.
These will be the first of several fixtures to see this number of fans at the London-based venue, with several games left to play in the regular season.
