Visitors will be able to enjoy live music, children's activities including face painting and inflatables, and refreshments including a barbecue and the club's new barista coffees served by newly-trained senior school pupils as part of a new business and training partnership. The club's senior men's, ladies and under-teams will all be in action throughout the day at Laigh Bent, and youngsters will also be able to try out the sport as Hamilton get set to start their new Baby Bulls section for three- to five-year-olds. Hamilton's family festival takes place on Saturday, August 23, at their Bent Road clubhouse and grounds, beginning from 11.30am. Local musicians Sunny Evans, May Terra and Luis Kelly will be taking to the stage throughout the day, while the festival activities include a 70ft inflatable assault course, bouncy castle, inflatable 'hungry hippos', archery and face painting by local business owner Zoe Hadly. The club is also teaming up with Lanarkshire businesses Strachan Craft Butchers who are providing burgers for the barbecue, Equi's ice cream, and We Love Coffee who are training local school pupils including a group from Strathaven Academy to carry out barista work. Children will have the opportunity to try playing rugby at a special station, with club volunteers Megan Lindsay and Ali Anderson currently working to start the Baby Bulls section for the youngest players.

A club spokesperson said: 'We are relaunching our club as a community space, and are hosting the family festival to celebrate; it's designed to be a relaxed, welcoming day out where parents can enjoy local food and music whilst little ones are entertained. 'We're looking to host many more community events; we are at the very beginning but intend to have many more events from fireworks night to food markets. 'We are teaming up with We Love Coffee to start selling barista coffees in the club and are working with local schools to put students through barista training and offer them work experience to get more young people into the world of work; and also with Freedom Bakery to provide pastries every Sunday.' or at the gate on the day. * Don't miss the latest headlines from around Lanarkshire.

Meet little-known 6ft4in English golfer Harry Hall, who is on brink of shock Ryder Cup qualification
HALL OF FAME Meet little-known 6ft4in English golfer Harry Hall, who is on brink of shock Ryder Cup qualification Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HARRY HALL, the Englishman who is a virtual unknown to all but the most diehard golf fans, can make a massive push for a Ryder Cup debut this week. Hall - easily spotted even without his trademark white flat cap as he stands at an imposing 6ft 4in - will aim to give European captain Luke Donald one final reminder of his talents at this week's Tour Championship. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Harry Hall can make a massive push for a Ryder Cup debut this week Credit:2 Hall will aim to give European captain Luke Donald one final reminder of his talents at the Tour Championship Credit:There are no qualifying points on offer in Atlanta. But if Hall can reproduce the form that earned him a last-gasp spot in the 30-man field, it will boost his chances of claiming one of Donald's six wild cards. Heading into last week's BMW Championship in Maryland, it looked as if the Cornishman had no chance of breaking into the top thirty on the FedEx Cup rankings. But a brilliant performance saw him finish sixth, and rocket from 45th to 26th place on the rankings. That put him even more firmly on Donald's Ryder Cup radar, after Hall was included among the 20-odd players the skipper had measured for European uniforms, and invited to a get-to-know-you dinner at last month's Scottish Open. Hall, 28, only climbed two places from 19th to 17th on the European Ryder Cup list last week. So he will have to improve on last week's finish to earn a pick from the European captain. But he is definitely in the reckoning. So just who is the big man known for his dynamite short game? Hall was born in Camborne and took up golf at the age of six, learning to play at the picturesque West Cornwall Golf Club, which overlooks St Ives Bay. His golf bag from his appearance in the 2019 Walker Cup - the amateur equivalent of the Ryder Cup - is on display in West Cornwall, along with memorabilia celebrating the club's most famous player. 'Long Jim Barnes'. CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS Barnes won four Majors nearly a century ago, and is a member of the Golf World Hall of Fame. Barnes always played in a flat cap, a habit adopted by Hall's golf-mad grandfather. It was their influence that persuaded Hall to carry on the tradition. Irish golf ace will 'stick to the day job' after being treated to 'best seat in the house for our landing into Toronto' Even though he has been based in the USA for the past ten years - spending four years at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas before playing his way onto the PGA Tour in 2023 - Hall still considers Cornwall as his home. And he still has a Cornish accent, although it has been diluted a bit by his time in the States. Hall won a couple of times on the "feeder'' Korn Ferry Tour before making his PGA Tour breakthrough by winning last year's Isco Championship. He has enjoyed another successful season, and has climbed to a high of 54th in the world rankings - and is almost certain to crack the top fifty this week. When he booked his place in the Open for the first time earlier this year, Hall announced he would 'buy a beer for everyone who travelled up from Cornwall' to watch him compete in his final qualifier, at Burnham and Berrow in Somerset. If he makes it onto Donald's Ryder Cup team, he will probably buy champagne for everyone in the county!

Gladiators rocked by injury crisis as FOUR stars are forced out by nasty accidents filming new series
All the Gladiators' injuries occurred during filming for the BBC show at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield OUT OF ACTION Gladiators rocked by injury crisis as FOUR stars are forced out by nasty accidents filming new series Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GLADIATORS has been rocked by an injury crisis with FOUR fan favourites forced out with injury. The Sun can reveal Legend, Bionic, Diamond and Athena were all taken out while taking on games for the new series. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Four fan favourites have been forced out with injury Credit: BBC 5 Legend, real name Matt Morsia, tore a bicep Credit: Supplied 5 Diamond - Livi Sheldon - rupturing the ACL and MCL in her knee Credit: Supplied Legend, real name Matt Morsia, tore a bicep, and Bionic - aka Matty Campbell - dislocated his shoulder. But it wasn't just male Glads who suffered, with Diamond - Livi Sheldon - rupturing the ACL and MCL in her knee. And Athena - Karenjeet Kaur Bains - busted her knee too. Despite the injuries, the Gladiators will all feature in series three when it airs on the BBC next year in some way - and will be on the live tour this autumn. A source said: 'Gladiators is the ultimate test of speed, strength and endurance - and four of its champions have paid the price. 'It just goes to show that these games are tough and even our professionals can suffer injuries." All the Gladiators' injuries occurred during filming for the BBC show at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield. In 2023 Comet, real name Ella-Mae Rayner, broke her ankle and foot and had to undergo an operation to rebuild her foot. And Sabre, aka Sheli McCoy, tore her hamstring. First Strictly Come Dancing confirm first star for 2025 series - and it's a Gladiator Ella fell 30ft from The Wall in a horrifying accident that almost took away her ability to walk. Whilst they both focus on recovery, the Glads have praised the care of medics on set. As the show is one of toughest and most physically demanding programmes on TV, the production team had a very robust health and safety policy in place as well as appropriate insurances. Risk assessments were carried out for all of the games and the Gladiators and contenders underwent extensive training with experts. A doctor, paramedics, technicians, physios and a trained Health and Safety advisor were all present on set every day. A spokesman for the BBC said: 'The health and well-being of all Gladiators, contenders and crew is of paramount importance. Gladiators is one of the toughest and most physically demanding programmes on TV and due to the high-impact nature of the show it is not unusual for those competing to suffer injuries. "In each instance, as soon as it became apparent that a potential injury had occurred, the correct protocol was immediately followed. "The injured Gladiators are currently following medical advice and working on their recoveries.' 5 Athena - Karenjeet Kaur Bains - also busted her knee
