Lynsey Armitage proudly represents Team Northumbria as the oldest player in the Superleague and hopes to make her experience count against Surrey Storm. Vic Beasley Falcons Jersey . The 40-year-old former England player is expected to feature on the court when Team Northumbria take on reigning champions Surrey on Monday night, live on Sky Sports 2 from 7.30pm.Armitage admits she could not resist a call to compete in the Vitality Superleague again and the seasoned shooter believes she offers a different attacking option to Team Northumbria. It was too good of an opportunity to say no, said Armitage. I still captain a Premier League side, but to get asked to come back and play Superleague, why would you say no to it?Its a fantastic opportunity, not only to play netball, but also introduce a different style of play to a team that hasnt got a tall shooter. Its a little bit of a learning curve for the Northumbria girls as well, because they are all quite young. With the experience that Ive got, I stay quite calm and bring a different dynamic to the team. Surrey claimed victory over Team Northumbria earlier this season Armitage enjoys her status as the most senior player in the league, but admits the rapidly developing sport is becoming increasingly physical.She said: I was 40 in January, which was the week I got asked to play actually. I did answer: you do know how old I am?There shouldnt be an age limit on what you can do, if youve got a decent enough ability. It should be about that, more than the age.Reflecting on changes in Netball, Armitage added: Its amazing. Its not just to do with the sponsorship and the money. Just the physical ability of the players now. All the girls are in the gym and the sheer strength of the girls, I think you have to be more of athlete. Team Northumbria will line-up against Surrey Storm on Monday night Team Northumbria have picked up confidence boosting wins over Loughborough Lightning and Yorkshire Jets this season.Armitage admits the team is a work in progress, but believes they can emerge as genuine title rivals in the coming years.I dont think anyone would have had us down to turn over Loughborough like we did and it was a great day, she said.It just shows the depth in the squad and the mental strength of the team. It was a shame we lost to Celtic Dragons the other week.But this a young squad and they are looking to progress this team, so that in the next few years they are competing with the likes of Storm and Manchester Thunder.Watch Team Northumbria take on Surrey Storm, live on Sky Sports 2 from 7.30pm on Monday.

After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year.

Didier Drogba gave away the penalty that put Senegal one goal away from a major upset, but the veteran striker will get another chance -- probably his last -- at the World Cup after Salomon Kalous injury-time strike sealed the Ivorians place in Brazil next year. http://www.falconsapparelsshop.com/tevin-coleman-falcons-jersey-c-26/ . PETERSBURG, Fla.After a dramatic start to this years Premier League, Wayne Mardle makes his predictions for night two in Newcastle. Defending champion Gary Anderson will make his first appearance in the competition after recovering from a virus as he faces Michael van Gerwen.World No 1 Van Gerwen will be searching for his first win of the campaign, as will Phil Taylor, who faces James Wade in a battle of former winners. All the action is live on Sky Sports on Thursday night. Raymond van Barneveld v Peter Wright Raymond van Barneveld will be hoping to build on his win over Phil Taylor They both played especially well on the first night, especially Barney who had Phil Taylor to beat. We spoke to Raymond after the match last week, me and Dave Clark, and he actually admitted there is something about the World Championship and Premier League which switches him on. Out of the 10 previous years, he has qualified for the play-offs eight times. Van Barneveld dominated his match against Taylor These two have played each other in the Premier League three times and there have been two draws and a 7-5 win to Barney. I think this will be close, probably down to the last leg, and Barney will nick it. Sky Bet Price Boost MVG, Lewis and Wright all to win, was 7/1, NOW 9/1 Adrian Lewis v Dave Chisnall Adrian Lewis has rediscovered his best form in recent months Im in turmoil over this match. Lewis to me is starting to look like he is playing his best darts since 2011. Ive been saying this for the last three or four years and Im glad Im being proven right now. He cannot keep relying on just his talent alone. There is a saying that hard work beats talent, if talent does not work hard. That is Adrian Lewis in a nutshell. Adrian Lewis had to settle for a 120 after his third dart got caught Dave Chisnall has got a lot of talent, but he works hard at his game. He tries hard to get everything right. Lewis for me, is someone I back wiith no confidence, but if I back against him, he will lose me money. Robert Alford Falcons Jersey. Im going to go for a draw on this one. I cannot call it. They both can play at such a great standard.Gary Anderson v Michael van Gerwen Gary Anderson begins his campaign against Michael van Gerwen Gary is lucky to be back in just a week after a virus. He could have been out for much longer. Ive always had theories about joining the party late. I think it takes an hour or so to get involved. You walk in when everyone is all settled and you do feel like an outsider. For Gary its week one.Michael, after his performance against James Wade, will definitely be thinking I need two points on the table here. Im not saying he will be trying harder to win, because that is what he will do anyway, but Gary Anderson cannot be 100 per cent. He will have hardly practiced. 2013 champion Michael Van Gerwen lost his first match of the season Ive got to go for Van Gerwen here to win, purely because Gary has been out for a couple of weeks and Michael will be absolutely match fit. John Parts Picks Back the selections of Sky Sports pundit John Part with Sky Bet James Wade v Phil Taylor Phil Taylor beat Van Gerwen in the final of the UK Open qualifier three at the weekend Phil Taylor is turning into a normal human being, where he doesnt play well every week. I think weve now got to accept the fact that hes going to have these games, these tournaments where he obliterates the field and other nights he looks like everyone else. Last week, against Barney he just looked like a normal darts player. This week he could go up and average 110. Phil Taylor is turning into a normal human being, where he doesnt play well every week. Wayne Mardle During the weekend he played well and that can only help his confidence. Its not on the big stage where he wants to do it more, but these are little stepping stones.I think he will beat James Wade. James looked really good last week, but Michael van Gerwen missed a dart to go 4-0 up, missed a dart to go 4-1 up, missed another dart to go 5-3 up. The result could easily have been different. I just feel that James Wade will play roughly to the same standard, but I think Phil Taylor plays better than he did last week, purely because hes had a confidence boosting weekend, and will win this one.Watch night two of the Premier League this Thursday night, starting at 7pm on Sky Sports 1.
