Sam Oldhams world came crashing down in July. Cheap Orlando Cepeda Jersey . After impressing in key Olympic qualifying events, the 23-year-old gymnast was told he wouldnt be on the plane to Brazil with his GB team-mates.The Sky Academy Sports Scholar was distraught and bewildered. His appeal was in vain. Sam now opens up about his Rio heartache, support team and how hes rediscovered his love for the sport at his old club in Nottingham. You train four years for the chance to compete at an Olympics and sometimes it doesnt end the way you envisage.Thats exactly what happened this summer and its something Ill be processing for a good while yet. Time moves on though and sport is always changing with the next major championships always just around the corner.Heading into the Olympic trials I was in great shape and my confidence was high. After sitting down with my coach Sergey and physio at the end of 2015 we put together a plan we believed would give me the best possible chance of making Rio. Sam has rediscovered his love for gymnastics at his old Nottingham club We decided the most important thing was to put health first and make sure each day when I left the gym I was able to train fully again the next day. With this always at the forefront of my mind I stayed injury free through November to July this year which meant I could consistently compete and build up my competition confidence.The first Olympic trial went incredibly well. I completed six out of six clean routines and scored an Olympic cycle personal best of 89.950 to finish first all around. This was a huge boost for the last Olympic trial at the London Open and I felt ready to make a case for my place on the team.I competed really well under extreme pressure and finished first on Floor, second on Vault, third on High Bar and third in the All Around. I was really happy and felt very grateful to have had my family, girlfriend, best friend and sponsors watching me compete again at such a high level.They had all been with me through the incredibly tough times when I was recovering from my ankle surgery after the Commonwealth Games in 2014. I was so proud to have their help. Sam enjoying some downtime with his girlfriend in the summer Every single member of the Mens Senior Gymnastics squad had sacrificed so much to try to make the Olympic team and it was always going to be a very difficult decision to choose the five that would represent GB in Rio.I believed Id done enough. It was tough to take and a shock not to get selected and to be named one of three reserves. Confusion, frustration and probably a little anger were my over-riding emotions.It was very hard for my family and loved ones to understand and if anything it brought us all closer. I think I dealt with it very well and actually kept my composure at a time when it would have been very easy to fall apart. Ill be forever grateful for the love and support I got from my family, friends and sponsors during this difficult period.Without them I honestly wouldnt have been able to handle it. Another thanks has to go to Sky and, in particular, Tony Lester and my Scholarships mentor Geoff Shreeves who were always on the phone to share advice and life experience with me. Three Olympic reserves: Courtney Tulloch, Sam and Dan Purvis They both lead very busy lives so to know I had and continue to have people around me that care so much makes me feel part of a great team.Having had a few months to take it all in I can actually say Im now in a good place. The main thing helping me is that I have no regrets. I did everything I possibly could to give me the best chance of qualifying for the Games and also on the competition side of things with my performances.I didnt know this until I had achieved it but I realised that success for me after the challenging two years since my terrible injury was competing again at a very high level on six apparatus.A small part of me wasnt sure I could ever reach that level again so to have done it at the final Olympic trial and to win the Floor & stick my Vault was my success in 2016.Gymnastics will always be massively important to me but my values and morals far outweigh what I achieve in sport. So Im proud I can walk away from 2016 with my head held high and Im extremely proud of what I and everyone around me have accomplished.Starting fresh is where I am right now and thats begun with me changing where I train. Ive decided to move back to my original gymnastics club which is now called the Notts Gymnastics Academy where I trained from the age of 7 to 14. Sam remained injury free during a hectic Olympic qualifying campaign After chatting with my family, coach and girlfriend and decided I was going to commit to four more years in the sport, I looked at what I wanted going forward.I knew that if I was going to train full-time and aim for Tokyo I needed to be around people again in the gym and wanted to be in a positive environment. Training at Loughborough University for the past two Olympic cycles has been amazing and Ive had access to all the modern facilities pretty much to myself for most of the last three years.It doesnt mean its the best way to do things. Training one-on-one by myself for six hours a day is tough and spending that much time inside your own head isnt always healthy.Ill always be grateful for the support of Loughborough Sport and Gheorghe Predescu who has been a coach and friend to me for 15 years. However, its time to move on and Im extremely excited for my future in my new club.I visited the club as two of my friends are now coaches there and we started to talk about the possibility of moving back to train full-time. Very quickly it became clear that what they were trying to build at the club was something that really interested me and things flowed from there.With the gym being five minutes from my house it just made a lot of sense for everyone.Heading into the gym for my first session was really surreal and what was strange was that it felt like I had never left.Ive always said that my favourite times training were at Nottingham growing up and then the two years I spent training at Huntingdon alongside Louis Smith, Dan Keatings and many other amazing gymnastics and friends of that era. Sam enjoys a visit to Old Trafford with his dad One thing that really stood out was when I first trained on the High Bar. While swinging around I could see the same things that I saw a decade before, only now I was able to do tricks I couldnt have dreamed of doing back then.I almost wanted the Sam Oldham of 14 to be able to watch me now doing these mega release-and-catch skills. The nostalgia levels are through the roof right now and long may they continue. I absolutely love it!Looking towards 2017 and beyond I feel incredibly hungry. Without doubt Tokyo is the main reason Im in the gym each day and getting out of bed to go training. But whats great is that I feel I have my best years ahead and there are still things between now and 2020 I want to achieve.A World Championships medal is something thats missing from my collection and I still have unfinished business with the Commonwealth Games. Overall, Im just excited for this next chapter in my life at my new club.It really does feel like Ive come back home and Id like to thank everyone there for making me feel so welcome. Right now Im working on my new routines for 2017 and soon Im off on holiday with my girlfriend to Dubai and then its Thailand at the end of November. Thank you to my family, loved ones, coach and sponsors and everyone who has followed and supported me during my Sky Sports Scholarships journey.WHATS COMING UP FOR OUR SCHOLARS....OCT 10-12: Elise Christie, Speed skating training days in Hungary Also See: About the Scholarship Meet the athletes Blogs Videos Galleries Cheap Hank Aaron Jersey .com) - Generally you want to be the guy who replaces the guy who replaced the legend.

Lineup news, Fantasy and more in Scott Cullen’s Statistically Speaking. HEROES St. Louis Blues – After rolling the San Jose Sharks for seven goals, for the second time in a week, the Blues have a bunch of players on hot streaks.NYON, Switzerland -- Big-spending clubs Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain were fined 60 million euros ($82 million) by UEFA on Friday and ordered to limit their Champions League squads to 21 players next season for breaching the bodys financial fair play rules. In the first series of sanctions handed down by UEFA over its new regulations meant to curb over-spending by wealthy owners, nine clubs in all were handed punishments -- but those given to the Premier League winner and the French champion were by far the heaviest. City said it will accept the sanctions and will not appeal, but insisted that the club has a "fundamental disagreement" with UEFA about its "interpretations of the FFP regulations on players purchased before 2010." PSG also accepted the punishment "in spite of the tremendous handicap they represent in terms of the clubs ability to fully compete on an equal footing against Europes biggest teams." PSG also said in a statement that it "deplores the fact" that UEFA hasnt recognized "the full value" of its partnership with the Qatar Tourism Authority, which the governing body said was inflated. The fines given to City and PSG are the heaviest ever handed by out UEFA. However, UEFA said 40 million euros will be returned to the clubs if they fulfil their financial obligations over the next two years. Those obligations include limiting the deficits to 10 million euros in the financial year ending in 2015 for City, with PSG allowed a deficit of 30 million euros for that period before being obligated to break even by 2016. City said it expects to break even by the end of 2014. UEFA said both clubs have agreed to "significantly limit" their spending in the transfer market over the next two years. However, City said it is allowed to spend 60 million euros, plus whatever it earns for selling players, in this summers transfer window. It said the UEFA sanction "will have no material impact on the clubs planned transfer activity." The reduced Champions League squads may not have much of an impact either. Teams are ordinarily allowed 25-man squads for the competition, but few end up using that many. Cityy and PSG both used 21 players on the field this past season -- not counting unused substitutes.

"We will continue to invest in developing a highly competitive team and will continue our investments in our stadium and training infrastructures while at the same time remaining, as we are today "debt free." The FFP rules require clubs who play in the Champions League and Europa League to balance their finances, and are meant to curb huge investments by owners and excessive spending on transfers. The sanctions were handed down five years after UEFA President Michel Platini launched the program to tackle "cheating" by overspending. No club was expelled from next seasons Champions League or Europa League, which had been billed as the harshest punishment available. The other clubs to have failed FFP were Galatasaray, Trabzonspor and Bursaspor from Turkey, Russian sides Zenit St Petersburg, Anzhi Makhachkala and Rubin Kazan, as well as Levski Sofia from Bulgaria. Those were handed fines ranging from 200,000 euros -- for Galatasaray, Trabzonspor, Levski and Bursaspor -- to 12 million euros for Zenit. UEFA was expected to rule against Man City and PSG, which far exceeded a limit of 45 million-euro losses over the first two seasons of very complex accounting rules for FFP assessment. Both clubs tried to balance their finances with inflated sponsorship deals linked to their owners in Abu Dhabi and Qatar, respectively. City was also scrutinized for booking tens of millions in revenue from selling image rights and consultancy fees to third parties. Critics of FFP say it was effectively manipulated during UEFAs lengthy consultation with clubs who saw an opportunity to lock out emerging rivals whose new, wealthy owners wanted to spend quickly to join the elite. Clubs such as Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Real Madrid, which have lucrative commercial deals worldwide, will all likely benefit from City and PSG now having to rein in their transfer strategy.
