British Olympic legend, Linford Christie, visited Worksop yesterday to help find the next sport star from Nottinghamshire.

The sporting athletes of Street Athletics, which sees under-20s race over a 60-metre stretch, received some tips from the Olympic gold medal winner.

The event, held in Worksop in Nottinghamshire, was managed locally by Street Athletics, in partnership with Nottinghamshire County Council’s sports development team. There was also support from Worksop Harriers who provided opportunities for the children to join their athletics club.
