Goalkeeper Ross Atkins has had his loan spell with Blue Square Bet Premier club Tamworth from npower Championship side Derby County extended until January.
The 20-year-old joined the Lambs on a month-long deal on August 10th and has impressed boss Gary Mills with his performances.
He will now remain with Tamworth until January 8th.
"It is a great experience for Ross to be out playing first-team football and it is a move that suits all parties," Derby manager Nigel Clough told the club`s official website.
"There is no substitute for gaining experience and we view this loan spell as an important part of his development.
"Gary Mills has assembled a good, strong squad and they have started the season well, and from the reports we are getting back Ross has been playing well."
