Barrett signs for Edinburgh City

Edinburgh City have added another player to their squad with the acquisition of left-sided midfielder Bradley Barrett.
The Bonnyrigg-born player spent five seasons with his local side and last season made 27 appearances for The Rose, scoring four goals and setting up two others.
Currently, the 24-year-old, who has also played for Tranent and the under-18 side at Berwick Rangers, is carrying an injury from last season but City are confident he will be fit in the next few weeks.

Showbiz Luke Littler sends New York darts fans wild with thrilling 120 checkout missing a treble

World Champion dazzles and fans at Madison Square Gardens lup up the darts Showbiz Luke Littler lit up Madison Square Gardens with hat-trick finish as he stormed out of the blocks in the Big Apple. The Nuke got his New York campaign underway with a stylish victory over Jules van Dongen and produced the exhibition finale to seal the deal. ‌ Littler was in control and on his way into the next round as he had the Dutch Dragon toiling before capping off the win in thrilling style. The teenage World Champion raised the roof in The Theater by sealing his 6-1 win with a 120 checkout of three double tops. ‌ Crowds lapped up the entertainment and the reigning World Series of Darts Finals champion now meets Nathan Aspinall in Saturday's quarter-finals as he bids to claim his maiden New York triumph. Aspinall, the 2019 US Darts Masters winner in Las Vegas, landed eight 180s and averaged 105 in a sensational 6-2 win over Canadian No.1 Matt Campbell. He said: 'I knew I had a tough game against Matt and I had to produce some good numbers. The 180s were flowing and it was a great game and an amazing crowd. I'd love to win another US Darts Masters title. I've not won one since 2019 and I think I'm a better player than that.' While it was joy for the Lancashire and there were wins for Michael van Gerwen on comeback and World No.1 Luke Humphries, it was misery for Rob Cross who had the defence of his title ended within six legs by Danny Lauby in a whitewash whipping. The Indiana-born left-hander has lost three times previously in the US Darts Masters first round and admitted: 'That was amazing. Every win is difficult; I've not had a whole lot of stage experience this year so there's nothing but positives. ‌ 'I know how good Rob is and he didn't play to his standard and I was fortunate enough to take advantage. I'm really happy and looking forward to Saturday. I've not really done myself justice on the tour so I needed this and I'm going to build on this. 'The North American Darts Championship is obviously the most important thing for my ranking and Ally Pally, so I'm really gunning for that one, but obviously I want to do every one of my supporters proud and I might as well win them both!' Humphries came from 4-3 down against Stowe Buntz and van Gerwen and 2024 finalist Gerwyn Price will meet in a tasty quarter-final on Saturday following impressive opening victories. Price shone in his 6-2 victory over American qualifier Adam Sevada, while Van Gerwen marked his return to action by averaging almost 100 to dispatch Leonard Gates 6-1. Damon Heta punished nine missed doubles from Jim Long to claim a 6-1 win over the Canadian, averaging almost 99 on his New York debut to set up a clash with Jason Brandon, who stunned Stephen Bunting.

Evan Minto: Wales can cause upsets at U20 World Championship

The Welsh youngsters get their campaign under way against Argentina tomorrow (kick-off 7.30pm) and all five Rodney Parade prospects feature in Verona. New signing Harry Beddall captains the side from openside and is joined in the back row by Minto, Nick Thomas starts at lock and Harri Ford pulls the strings from fly-half, with tighthead Owain James on the bench. Abercarn's Jack Woods and Abergavenny-born Aidan Boschoff, both former Monmouth School pupils and now with Bath and Bristol respectively, line up at full-back and wing. Towering Thomas, who made three senior Dragons appearances last season, makes a first start since suffering a serious ankle injury against France in February. 'Nick has worked hard to get back from the injury he had in Six Nations,' said head coach Richard Whiffin, who brought the lock off the bench in the warm-up win against Italy. 'He offers a level of experience in the second row against what we know is going to be a formidable Argentina pack.' Wales face the young Pumas and then take on group favourites France on Friday before a clash with Spain. Whiffin's side head into the tournament buoyed by their Six Nations displays when they edged out Italy, stunned Ireland at Rodney Parade and then denied England a Grand Slam and the title with a remarkable performance at Cardiff Arms Park. INFLUENTIAL: Evan Minto on the charge for Wales U20s (Image: Mark Lewis/Huw Evans Agency) Minto, a firm fixture in the XV, believes their togetherness will be key in a tournament that will stretch the squad with five games in 20 days. 'We are just a side that works really hard for each other and we know that, on our day, we can put in a performance to beat anyone,' he said. 'We are a group that works hard for each other and doesn't give up and the atmosphere in the camp is really good. We have a laugh together but also know when to switch on. 'I don't think that spirit is something that can be coached into a team and it's almost that we clicked as soon as we came together. 'There are no cliques, we are willing to work hard for the player next to us and we help each other even when competition is strong for places.' Minto will lead the charge for Wales at the end of a hectic season. The 19-year-old from Griffithstown made three senior Dragons cameos and featured for the development side, played for Pontypool in Super Rugby Cymru, Hartpury in the English Championship plus started all five Six Nations games and the two warm-up fixtures. 'It's been a long season but really enjoyable,' he said. 'I have been playing for a full year but I've had a smile on my face no matter who I've been playing for or what the opposition is. I've learnt so much and that is what keeps driving me on.' Wales U20: Jack Woods (Bath, 2 caps); Elijah Evans (Cardiff, 7 caps), Osian Roberts (Sale, 3 caps), Steffan Emanuel (Cardiff, 10 caps), Aidan Boshoff (Bristol, 11 caps); Harri Ford (Dragons, 14 caps), Sion Davies (Cardiff, 4 caps); Ioan Emanuel (Bath, 8 caps), Harry Thomas (Scarlets, 15 caps), Sam Scott (Bristol, 15 caps), Kenzie Jenkins (Bristol, 5 caps), Nick Thomas (Dragons, 11 caps), Deian Gwynne (Gloucester, 4 caps), Harry Beddall (captain, Dragons, 11 caps), Evan Minto (Dragons, 5 caps). Replacements: Saul Hurley (Aberavon, 2 caps), Louie Trevett (Bristol, 5 caps), Owain James (Dragons, 3 caps), Dan Gemine (Ospreys, 4 caps), Caio James (Gloucester, 3 caps), Ellis Lewis (Neath, uncapped), Harri Wilde (Cardiff, 17 caps), Tom Bowen (Cardiff, 5 caps).
