Taylor Bids to Become Two-Weight World Champion TAYLOR BIDS TO BECOME TWO- WEIGHT WORLD CHAMPION IN MANCHESTER Katie Taylor will bid to become a two-weight World Champion when she meets Christina Linardatou for the WBO Super- Lightweight World title at Manchester Arena on Saturday November 2, shown live on Sky Sports in the UK and DAZN in the US. On the same bill, Manchester favourite Anthony Crolla bids farewell at the venue he was crowned World Champion, rising Light-Heavyweight star Joshua Buatsi steps up again to take on another former World title challenger Blakein Caparello, Felix Cash defends his Commonwealth Middleweight title against English ChampionJack Cullen and Gamal Yafai and Qais Ashfaq continue their march towards titles. Taylor (14-0, 6 KOs) completed her journey for Olympic gold to undisputed Lightweight World Champion with a thrilling points win over Belgium’s Delfine Persoon on the blockbuster Joshua vs. Ruiz card at Madison Square Garden on June 1. After a bloody and brutal battle that captivated the New York crowd, the Irish star added Persoon’s WBC belt to her IBF, WBO and WBA titles to hold all four at 135lbs and cement her place as the number one Lightweight on the planet. Linardatou (12-1, 6 KOs) landed the WBO crown with a sixth round TKO win over Kandi Wyatt in her home city of Athens in March. The 31-year-old made the first defence of her title against Deanha Hobbs three months later in Greece, dominating the Australian over ten rounds. Her sole career loss came against Delfine Persoon in June 2016 when she was outpointed in a challenge for the former champion’s WBC title in Belgium – her first World title attempt before moving up in weight to Super-Lightweight. “I had some of my early pro fights at Manchester Arena and to come back in November and headline a card there a couple of years on is amazing,” said Taylor. “It’s played host to some huge nights in boxing history so I’m honoured to be part of that tradition. “It’s a new challenge at a new weight and something I’m really excited about. I still feel like I have so much left to achieve in the sport and becoming a two-weight World Champion is one of those goals. “There are still so many huge fights out there for me like the Amanda Serrano fight, a rematch with Delfine Persoon and a fight with Cecilia Brækhus but the first goal is November 2nd and winning another World title. “I don’t have any issues making Lightweight so I think I can move comfortably between the two weights. I always want to push myself and Christina’s an excellent World Champion so it will be a big test for me.” Linardatou said: “I plan on leaving England with my title. If I need to knock Katie Taylor out in order to retain the title, that’s what I’ll do.” Former Lightweight World Champion Crolla (34-7-3, 13 KOs) fittingly returns to the scene of his greatest triumph to call the curtains on a memorable career after challenging pound- for-pound star Vasiliy Lomachenko for the WBA and WBO Lightweight titles in Los Angeles earlier this year. The Mancunian hero won the WBA Lightweight crown against Darleys Perez on a hugely emotional evening at Manchester Arena in November 2015 and successfully defended his title against Ismael Barroso at the same venue the following year. Croydon’s Buatsi (12-0, 10 KOs) fights in Manchester for the first time as a professional after extending his explosive KO streak to seven fights as he stopped Canada’s Ford in seven rounds at The O2 in London on the Lomachenko vs. Campbell card. Next up on his World title quest is Australia’s Caparello (30-3-1, 13 KOs), a former opponent of WBO Light-Heavyweight World Champion Sergey Kovalev and former IBF Super- Middleweight ruler Andre Dirrell, who arrives on these shores coming off four wins. Cash (11-0, 7 KOs) was due to defend his Commonwealth title against Little Lever’s Cullen (17-1, 8 KOs) in July before an injury ruled him out but the pair will now clash in November after Cullen stopped John Harding Jr in eight rounds in Liverpool, while Yafai (16-1, 9 KOs) was last seen stopping Brayan Mairena in Birmingham last September. “I’m so happy to be back in Manchester for this huge show,” said Eddie Hearn. “Katie Taylor is now established as one of the biggest stars in world boxing and she bids to make more history by becoming a multi-weight World Champion by challenging WBO Super-Lightweight champ Christina Linardatou. “Hometown hero Anthony Crolla rolls the dice one more time as he takes part in his final fight in the sport in the arena that has hosted so many epic Anthony Crolla nights. The stabilisers are off for Joshua Buatsi as he takes a huge step up against tough Australian Blake Caparello in a WBA World title eliminator and there is a brilliant domestic Middleweight clash between Commonwealth champ Felix Cash and English champ Jack Cullen – there’s plenty more beneath these four fights on what will be a huge night of boxing.” Adam Smith, Head of Sky Sports Boxing, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be showing the best female boxer in the world back on Sky Sports on this huge show. This is another major test for Katie Taylor as the undisputed Lightweight champion takes on all comers and continues to cement her extraordinary legacy in the sport. “Katie is a marvellous ambassador and inspiration to so many and we are delighted to be working so closely with her as we look to feature both the very best in boxing and also in women’s sport on Sky.”.

Neen, ik ben geen uitgesproken aanhanger van Bart De wever en zijn obligate Latijnse spreuken, u zal de tekst zeker herkennen als de woorden van lof die het leger der engelen aanhief bij de geboorte van Jezus. Voor het eerst in zes jaar zal ik niet aanwezig zijn op de kerstviering. Het was stilaan een traditie geworden, na mijn voorganger Luc Kuylen, was ook ik op elke afspraak present. Zoals jullie wellicht weten, heeft het afgelopen jaar ons gezin een bijzonder leuke zoon gebracht, maar op datzelfde moment ving ook de ongelijke strijd van Sofie aan. Kerst is voor mij steeds het met verve het feest van het gezin geweest, en dit jaar heb ik die keuze ook gemaakt, die week behoort in 2014 aan Sofie, Marte, Tiemen en Giel. Nog net voor kerst verliezen we in Floordam priester Frans. Ik ben blij dat ik hem toch enkele jaren heb mogen kennen; we gedenken hem in onze gebeden, maar zeker ook in de aangename en milde herinneringen.

  • Jaarboek2016 170585 LR
    jaar overzicht 2016 provincie West-Vlaanderen voorwoord Beste lezer, Het is een jaarlijkse traditie: de eerste gedeputeerde mag dit jaarboek voorstellen. Een uitdaging, om in een kort voorwoord een lijvig en goedgevuld overzicht samen te vatten en aan te prijzen. 2016 was een opmerkelijk jaar, met een aantal duidelijke krachtlijnen. Het project van de afslanking - in juli 2016 door de Vlaamse regering met een jaar uitgesteld tot 1 januari 2018 - heeft er ons als Provincie en als organisatie toe aangezet om aan creatieve zelfreflectie te doen. Uit een analyse van onze bestuurlijke organisatie distilleerden we een aantal krachtlijnen en waarden die bepalend worden voor onze toekomst. Deze analyse schiep tegelijk het duidelijke beeld van een ambitieuze Provincie. Een eerste krachtlijn is de geïntegreerde gebiedsgerichte aanpak. Onze Provincie kan zich beroepen op 20 jaar ervaring in deze methodiek. Ik ben er dan ook rotsvast van overtuigd dat de spirit van gebiedsgericht werken een bijzonder sterke troef is en zal blijven. Meer nog, we transformeren de principes en goede praktijken van 20 jaar ‘Gebiedsgerichte Werking’ ook tot een organisatiemodel. Een tweede krachtlijn is het samenwerken. Als Provincie willen we ons positioneren als een partner die graag samenwerkt met de andere bestuursniveaus. Vonk apb, de samensmelting tussen het vroegere SBR en WIVO, is het nieuwe vormings- en expertisecentrum waarmee we dit willen vormgeven. Maar ook naar Vlaanderen reiken we de hand, om samen West-Vlaanderen nog beter te besturen en uit te bouwen. De derde krachtlijn is die van een vernieuwende en ambitieuze organisatie. Als enige Provincie in Vlaanderen hebben we momenteel een duidelijk vernieuwingstraject opgezet.

In the first quarter we conceded many goals but once we’d warmed into the game we started to use the court well. Throughout the game the standard of netball improved thanks to the strong midfield of Lucia and Amelia. Our attack was strong with our goals scored by Emily flack and Ashley. However throughout the game Princethorpe were dominant and their accuracy of shooting proved effective, even with the strong defence of Nabihah. Even with defeat, we had fun and look forward to more matches. U12 Rugby LSS 0 - 60 Ratcliffe College A very difficult game made harder by a depleted squad but the boys kept fighting and learning the game of Rugby. We were much more competitive in the second period and could have scored but for some excellent defence. Man of the Match was Will Gower who improved his ball carrying and distribution to bring others into the game more effectively as well as showing strong and positive leadership U16 Rugby vs Princethorpe (L15-17) A game in very wet conditions but the boys did brilliantly. A tough and physical encounter with some real moments of quality. Trailing 10-5 at break LSS were unfortunate not to have gone in even, a couple of last second errors preventing the try in the corner. In the second half only a conversion separated the teams in what was a pulsating game." Man of the Match Luca Marsella.
