What Happened
The sports world has seen a flurry of activity in recent days, with several notable events and announcements. In Scotland, the Old Firm game between Celtic and Rangers drew over 1.1 million viewers on Sky Sports, as the title race heats up. Meanwhile, in the WNBA, general managers are preparing for a busy period of drafts and free agency once the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) is in place.
New Initiatives
In netball, the introduction of choice kit has been welcomed by players and coaches alike. Tamsin Greenway, a former England netball player, has said that the move is a "no brainer" and will not mark the end of the sport's iconic dress uniform. In the NHL, the Capitals-Rangers game on April 5 will feature a unique "Inside Out" broadcast, with players skating alongside characters from the Pixar film.
Surprise Delivery
In a surprising turn of events, Forest Green Rovers defender Jili Buyabu delivered his own baby in the early hours of Thursday morning. Buyabu's wife went into labor and he did not have time to get her to the hospital, so he stepped in to deliver the baby himself. The 22-year-old player is expected to return to the pitch soon, helping his team's promotion push.
What Experts Say
"Jili Buyabu had rung me at a quarter to 12 saying I've got to take my partner to the hospital as she's due but it was a false alarm... He woke me up this morning at 10 to seven and said 'gaffer, I've just delivered the baby.'" — Robbie Savage, Forest Green Rovers boss
