ON Mother's Day North Yorkshire discovered a new Supermum. Bryonie Sheppard was faster than a speeding bullet when she saw a robber snatch 13-year-old Bee Boon's bag at Megabowl.

Bryonie ran after him, rugby tackled him and rescued the bag.

Her heroics have restored Bee's faith in humanity. And her rugby skills should surely have caught the eye of the York Wasps coach.

Bryonie may be the perfect secret weapon to ensure the Wasps build on a rare victory this weekend.
