Welcome to the new Nub News sports portal, exclusive to Axminster Nub News and Seaton Nub News.

If you're a member of a sporting organisation in the Axe Valley, we want to know about all your activities.

Our sports coverage will be co-ordinated by veteran West Country journalist Philip Evans who used to be managing director of Independent Newspapers Sports Publications in London which published magazines for Arsenal, Tottenham, West Ham, Leeds and Manchester City and other publications for a number of other sports including cricket, rugby and American football.

Philip also co-wrote the Rob Andrew 1995 Rugby World Cup Diary in South Africa.

As a young man Philip was very much involved in the local sports scene, playing football for Axminster Town and his home club Lyme Regis and cricket for Uplyme & Lyme Regis. He is also a former chairman of both Lyme Regis FC and Uplyme cricket club and is currently president of Lyme football club.
