OTTAWA -- Sixteen-year-old Isabela Onyshko and 78-year-old Al Hanet are officially the youngest and oldest Canadians participating at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland as Canada officially confirmed its roster on Thursday for the international athletics competition. Melvin Gordon III Youth Jersey . Onyshko, from Minnedosa, Man., will compete in artistic gymnastics while Hanet, from Kelowna, B.C., will compete in lawn bowling as a para-athlete. "It is exciting that our Canadian athletes are starting to arrive at the Games Village," said Chantal Petitclerc, Canadas Chef de Mission. "While we have had a small advance team on site for over a week, having athletes now living in the Village has made it come alive. Everything is operational and working very well, the accreditation centre, the dining hall, the transport mall and all amenities. "Glasgow 2014 is ready -- as are the Commonwealths best athletes who are starting to gather for these great Games." Canada is sending its largest-ever delegation to a Commonwealth Games not on home soil with 265 athletes competing in 16 out of 17 sports at Glasgow. Netball is the only sport Canadians will not compete in. Trapshooter Susan Nattrass, who will be Canadas flagbearer at the Opening Ceremony on July 23, is the most experienced athlete in the delegation. The 63-year-old, who lives in Edmonton, is competing in her fifth Games and has won three silver medals and five bronze at previous competitions. Montreals Metodi Igorov, Nattrasss teammate on the shooting team, will also be competing in his fifth Commonwealth Games. "After years of preparation, it is hard to believe that we are now only one week away from the Opening Ceremony," said Scott Stevenson, Commonwealth Games Canadas Director of Sport. "Canada has fielded a very strong team for these 2014 Games, and we are targeting a top three finish amongst all nations competing here. This Team truly represents sporting excellence at its best." Junior Seau Youth Jersey . Despite Arsenals financial firepower, the 31-year-old midfielder was the only arrival in the January transfer window. Signed until the end of the season as injury cover, Kallstrom might not be fit until mid-March after arriving Friday at Arsenal having injured his back earlier in the week while training with Spartak Moscow. Melvin Gordon III Womens Jersey . Still, Inter moved one point ahead of Parma in the race for fifth place and the final Europa League spot. Udinese remained 14th, 11 points above the relegation zone. Inter was beaten 2-1 by Atalanta at home on Sunday and has won only seven of 16 matches at the San Siro this season, as the squad seems to still be searching for its identity under new owner Erick Thohir and first-year manager Walter Mazzarri. http://www.chargersauthenticofficialonline.com/authentic-drue-tranquill-jersey.html . But when it was all over they had wasted another lead, seen another pitcher flame out on the mound and lost their fourth straight at home.NEW YORK, N.Y. - Chase Headley hustled to New York, eager to help his new team right away. Thats exactly what he did — about 4 1/2 hours after pulling on his pinstripes. Headley came through with a storybook swing at the stroke of midnight in his Yankees debut, hitting a game-winning single in the 14th inning to give New York a 2-1 victory over the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night. "A little chaotic. Awesome, though," said Headley, acquired from San Diego in an afternoon trade. "Mixed emotions, but I couldnt be happier." Derek Jeter broke Lou Gehrigs franchise record for doubles, and the Yankees won an unlikely pitching duel after rookie starters Chase Whitley and Nick Martinez both entered with a 5.10 ERA. J.P. Arencibia snapped a scoreless tie with a leadoff homer in the 13th against New York reliever David Huff, but the Yankees responded with Brett Gardners leadoff double and Jacoby Ellsburys tying single off closer Joakim Soria in the bottom half. Most seats were empty by the time Brian Roberts doubled with one out in the 14th off Nick Tepesch (3-6), who threw 99 pitches over 4 1-3 innings during Sundays start in Toronto. Roberts was held at third on Francisco Cervellis single before Headley looped a single to left-centre just as the clock struck midnight. "Sometimes these things happen. I had a chance earlier to get it done. Theres a lot of nerves, but then I thought, why wouldnt this day go this way?" he said. "I was yanking off everything and made an adjustment and shot it the other way." Headley raised one arm as he ran to first and was soon mobbed by his happy new teammates. He was doused with a sports drink by Gardner during a postgame television interview. "Unbelievable," Headley said after going 1 for 4. "Im excited to be here. I cant wait to help, and just to be a part of this great franchise." The third baseman left the Padres in Chicago and caught a flight that landed at LaGuardia Airport about 6:30 p.m. An hour later, he was in uniform shaking hands with other Yankees in the dugout during the top of the second inning. "I was expecting to play," Headley said. He struck out as a pinch hitter in the eighth and had a great chance to win it in the 12th when he grounded out witth the bases loaded to end the inning. Joey Bosa Youth Jersey. The 2012 Gold Glove winner also made a leaping grab to end the 10th. "Hes had a whirlwind of a day," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "Hes a new chip for us." Jeff Francis (1-1) worked a scoreless inning to win his Yankees debut in a game that took 4 hours, 51 minutes. "We didnt give in. We didnt give up," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "We didnt give them the game. They beat us." It was New Yorks third walk-off win this season — and second in three days. The team said Headley became the first player to get a game-ending hit in his Yankees debut since Roy Weatherly against the Washington Senators on April 22, 1943, according to research by the Elias Sports Bureau. The teams combined to use 17 pitchers. Minus ailing slugger Mark Teixeira, the Yankees were held scoreless for 17 straight innings by a last-place team with the highest ERA in the American League by half a run. Looking to upgrade that sagging lineup, New York obtained Headley from the Padres for rookie infielder Yangervis Solarte and minor league pitcher Rafael De Paula. Jeter hit his 535th double in the ninth, snapping a tie with Gehrig. Carlos Beltran grounded into an inning-ending double play against Neal Cotts. It was the longest scoreless game for the Yankees since they beat Boston 2-0 in 15 innings on Alex Rodriguezs two-run homer Aug. 7, 2009. NOTES: Rangers RF Alex Rios missed his third straight game with a sprained right ankle, but Washington hopes Rios will be able to play Wednesday night. Rios ran before the game and was scheduled to go through a full workout during batting practice. ... Rangers C Geovany Soto went on the 15-day DL with a strained right groin, less than a week after he returned from right knee surgery that had kept him out all season. ... Kelly Johnson started in right field for the first time in his career as Girardi rested slumping Ichiro Suzuki. Johnson made a nice running catch in deep right-centre to begin the 10th, but came out with discomfort in his groin before the 11th. He was replaced by Suzuki and went for an MRI. ... Headley is wearing No. 12 with New York. In San Diego he wore No. 7, which was retired by the Yankees in honour of Mickey Mantle. ' ' '
