Hi, Ricky here with your last burst of all things news for Saturday.

:00:00.:00:08.

Coming up... Great Britain take silver at the Winter Paralympics.

:00:09.:00:11.

And should shouty parents be banned from the pitch? You have your say,

:00:12.:00:23.

on Newsround. First up, Great Britain has got off to a

:00:24.:00:26.

medal-winning start on the first day of the Winter Paralympics. Jade

:00:27.:00:29.

Etherington winning silver in the visually impaired downhill. She

:00:30.:00:32.

becomes the first British woman EVER to win a Paralympic skiing medal.

:00:33.:00:45.

The first British woman to win Paralympic medal. That is crazy! It

:00:46.:00:53.

has not sunk in yet, but hopefully later on today, it will. I am

:00:54.:01:00.

excited. I am a proud Paralympian. A great start to the Games, which will

:01:01.:01:04.

last for ten days and will see more than 500 athletes competing for 72

:01:05.:01:08.

gold medals. And this is how it all started. Let the games begin. It

:01:09.:01:18.

kicked off with spectacular so at the Olympic Stadium, including a

:01:19.:01:24.

giant ship and some ballet -- show. The games were opened by Vladimir

:01:25.:01:31.

Putin. The ongoing crisis between the Ukraine and Russia has caused

:01:32.:01:36.

tension. A number of politicians have said they will not be attending

:01:37.:01:40.

the games after Vladimir Putin decided to send troops into Crimea.

:01:41.:01:47.

The Winter Paralympic team from Ukraine have decided to compete and

:01:48.:01:54.

there are flag bearer entered to a chorus of cheers. This is Millie

:01:55.:01:59.

Knight, visually impaired skier representing Britain. Walking out,

:02:00.:02:04.

the best moment of my life. It was so good. How nervous were you? About

:02:05.:02:11.

an hour before, I was excited and then before we went on, I was

:02:12.:02:17.

nervous. Britain's official target is at least two medals, there has

:02:18.:02:22.

never been a the Winter Paralympics. With a silver medal in the bag,

:02:23.:02:27.

Great Britain is getting closer. Next up, if your playing sport this

:02:28.:02:31.

weekend you may experience a bit of this. Come on! Go on! Well, parents

:02:32.:02:44.

watching youth matches today and tomorrow in Lancashire are being

:02:45.:02:48.

told not to shout on the sidelines. Lancashire Football Association's

:02:49.:02:50.

Silent Weekend aims to change attitudes and behaviour during

:02:51.:02:52.

sports involving you guys. Sometimes the loud support can put too much

:02:53.:02:56.

pressure on young kids. The idea was put to the test at an under-nine's

:02:57.:03:00.

game in Horwich. This is what a few of the children thought. I think we

:03:01.:03:09.

play better when they are not shouting, because when people are

:03:10.:03:15.

shouting it is hard to peg. It was better, because no one was shouting.

:03:16.:03:21.

We can talk to each other. How does it make you feel? If they say bad

:03:22.:03:29.

things, it hurts. Well, we've been asking you whether your parents put

:03:30.:03:32.

you off when you're playing sport. Ciaran in Conwy likes being cheered

:03:33.:03:36.

on, he says: "It makes me feel comfortable, because I know I have

:03:37.:03:39.

their support." Adam in East Kilbride says his dad puts him off,

:03:40.:03:43.

and he's made him promise not to shout anymore! And Eve in Swansea

:03:44.:03:46.

says her granddad shouts at her when she plays rugby, it really puts her

:03:47.:03:50.

off! Thanks for sending us those comments. Next, turn down the volume

:03:51.:03:58.

if you don't want to hear the latest scores in the lunchtime kick-offs.

:03:59.:04:01.

OK, ready, here we go. Arsenal and Everton are currently drawing one

:04:02.:04:05.

all in the FA Cup and Man Utd are beating West Brom 1-0. You can turn

:04:06.:04:09.

the volume up now. At three o'clock, there's a big battle down the

:04:10.:04:12.

bottom, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Cardiff taking on Fulham in a game

:04:13.:04:16.

both teams need to win. Elsewhere, Crystal Palace host Southampton.

:04:17.:04:21.

Rugby, and the Six Nations returns this afternoon, Ireland play Italy

:04:22.:04:24.

in the early game at 2:30 and at five o'clock Scotland take on

:04:25.:04:27.

France. Fans from England and Wales will have to wait just over 24 hours

:04:28.:04:31.

until they can cheer on their sides as they play tomorrow afternoon at

:04:32.:04:39.

three. What do oranges, a football and a dog all have in common? Well,

:04:40.:04:42.

they're all stars of Newsrounds strangest clips of the week. Every

:04:43.:04:46.

week on the Newsround website we countdown the top three weirdest

:04:47.:04:49.

things that have happened over the last seven days. Check it out.

:04:50.:04:56.

Stranger! Your parents would have told you not to play with your

:04:57.:05:01.

food, but probably not if you live here in northern Italy. Once a year,

:05:02.:05:06.

for three days, people are positively encouraged to throw

:05:07.:05:09.

oranges around in a battle to recreate a famous story from the

:05:10.:05:16.

town's history. Now the referee at this game probably needed several

:05:17.:05:21.

red cards to keep hold of Episcopal max. Anything goes. Shoving, pushing

:05:22.:05:29.

jumping in the river, the aim is to get the ball into the goalposts in

:05:30.:05:34.

the water. Surely that is offside! She is cute, she has an even cute

:05:35.:05:40.

name and she survived a 12 mile journey in a car engine. This dog

:05:41.:05:45.

crawled into a car bonnet without anyone realising but thankfully she

:05:46.:05:50.

was unhurt by her adventure. That is one hot dog. Thanks Leah, also on

:05:51.:05:54.

the Newsround website. Pop group R5 reveal their footballing past and we

:05:55.:05:57.

reveal the maths behind cowboy tricks. That's all from me, make

:05:58.:06:01.

sure you tune in tomorrow. We will
