Fans will have the opportunity to welcome home local Olympic heroes Sam Oldham from Keyworth and West Bridgford’s Helen Richardson as the pair parade their medals at half-time today.

Helen, a former pupil at West Brigdford school and South Nottingham College, competed in the woman’s GB hockey team that defeated New Zealand to claim an impressive bronze medal at London 2012.  

Sam, who attended Rushcliffe School in West Brigdford, was part of the British men's gymnastics quartet that won bronze in the team all-around competition.
