| Now we go to Jane who is going to tell us about what's happening in town this weekend. |
| Right, thanks Andrew, |
| and now on to what's new, |
| and do we really need yet another sports shop in Bradcaster? |
| Well, most of you probably know Sports World - |
| the branch of a Danish sports goods company that opened a few years ago - |
| it's attracted a lot of custom, |
| and so the company has now decided to open another branch in the area. |
| It's going to be in the shopping centre to the west of Bradcaster. |
| So that will be good news for all of you who found the original shop in the north of the town hard to get to. |
| I was invited to a special preview |
| and I can promise you, this is the ultimate in sports retailing. |
| The whole place has been given a new minimalist look |
| with the company's signature colours of black and red. |
| The first three floors have a huge range of sports clothing as well as equipment, |
| and on the top floor, there's a cafe and a book and DVD section. |
| You'll find all the well-known names as well as some less well-known ones. |
| If they haven't got exactly what you want in stock, |
| they promise to get it for you in ten days. |
| Unlike the other store, where it can take up to fourteen days. |
| They cover all the major sports, including football, tennis and swimming, |
| but they particularly focus on running. |
| and they claim to have the widest range of equipment in the country. |
| As well as that, a whole section of the third floor is devoted to sports bags, |
| including the latest designs from the States. |
| If you can't find what you want here, it doesn't exist! |
| The shop will be open from 9.00 am this Saturday |
| and if you go along to the opening |
| then you'll have the chance to meet the national 400 metres running champion - Paul King, |
| who's coming along to open the shop, |
| and he will be staying around until about midday |
| to chat to any fans who want to meet him and sign autographs. |
| Then there will be a whole range of special attractions all weekend. |
| There will be free tickets for local sporting events for the first 50 customers, |
| and also a special competition open to all. |
| Just answer fifteen out of twenty sports questions correctly |
| to win a signed copy of Paul King's DVD - 'Spring Tips', |
| while the first person to get all the questions correct gets a year's free membership of the Bradcaster Gym. |
| All entrants will receive a special Sports calendar |
| with details of all Bradcaster fixtures in the coming year. |
| One of the special opening offers is a fitness test - |
| a complete review of your cardiac fitness and muscle tone, |
| actually done in the shop by qualified staff. |
| This would normally cost £30 |
| but is available at half price for this month only. |
| There are only a limited number of places available for this, |
| so to make a booking, phone 560341. |
| In addition, if you open an account you get lots more special offers |
| including the chance to try out equipment... |
