0:00:48 > 0:00:51and all-round sporting superstar.
0:00:51 > 0:00:55But when Rachel's not scoring goals for her team,
0:00:55 > 0:00:57she's playing with the Footy Pups.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02THEY CHEER
0:01:02 > 0:01:06Hi, everyone. We're warmed up so it's time to get moving.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08THEY CHEER
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Today on my team we have...
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Number one, David.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Number two, Tienna.

0:01:48 > 0:01:50And that's today's team.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56OK, guys, gather round. It's team talk time.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Now is everybody listening? ALL:- Yes!
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Cos today we are going to be focusing on listening.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07So where on the football pitch and to whom do we need to listen?
0:02:07 > 0:02:11- The coach.- Excellent, to the coach. - Listen to your team-mate.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- Well done, Manet. - Everywhere.- That's right.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18You need to make sure you're listening everywhere
0:02:18 > 0:02:21when you're on AND off of the football pitch.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25There are three things we need to remember when we're listening.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28We need to focus, we need to hear
0:02:28 > 0:02:31and we need to think. Do you want to do it with me?
0:02:31 > 0:02:36- Focus, hear and think. - OK, guys, let's have a practice.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Practice time.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43To practice listening, we're going to play a listening game.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45You're going to hear a sound.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47When you know what it is, you're going to turn
0:02:47 > 0:02:51and run to the picture that makes that sound. Shall we have a go?
0:02:51 > 0:02:55- Yes.- OK, let's have a listen. BELL RINGS
0:02:55 > 0:02:59- Do you think you know what it is? - Yes!- OK, let's go.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03- PUPS:- Hooray!- Yeah!- Fantastic, guys. It was a bell. Back you come!
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Can they find the right sound?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Let's have another listen.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- ENGINE WHIRS Do you know what that is?- Yeah!
0:03:10 > 0:03:12OK, let's go, guys.
0:03:12 > 0:03:13Great listening.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16Excellent. It was the tractor.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17WHISTLE BLOWS
0:03:17 > 0:03:21- Can you hear what it is?- Yeah! - OK, go, go, go!
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Well done. Fantastic. It was a whistle.
0:03:23 > 0:03:24Good stuff.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26SHEEP BLEATS
0:03:26 > 0:03:28And another sound.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Well done. It was the sheep.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31DUCKS QUACK
0:03:31 > 0:03:33- Do you know what it is?- Yeah!
0:03:33 > 0:03:35OK, go, go, go!
0:03:35 > 0:03:39Whilst these guys keep practising, here's a reminder for you at home.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43To listen well, you need to focus,
0:03:43 > 0:03:47hear the sound and think what it is.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Now we're going to challenge ourselves.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54I've given you a blindfold and a football.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57I'm going to clap in different places.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01You need to point your football at where you think I'm clapping
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- so we can see how good you are at listening. Are we ready?- Yeah.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07OK, pop your blindfolds on.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10OK.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Right, this is tricky.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15Brilliant.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Oh, well done, guys. Good listening.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20SHE CLAPS
0:04:20 > 0:04:22They've done it again.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24SHE CLAPS
0:04:24 > 0:04:26That's great listening.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29- SHE CLAPS - And again.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- SHE CLAPS - Good.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- You're so good at listening, Rex. - Thanks, Geraldine.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Do you remember when I thought I couldn't play
0:04:38 > 0:04:41- cos I had a cone on my head? - Oh, yes!
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Welcome to Pupton Park, where Groundskeeper Pete
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- is reseeding the pitch. - All finished.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53We'll have lots of lovely, new grass growing here in no time.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57CROWS CAW Oh! Those seeds aren't for you.
0:04:57 > 0:05:02They're for fixing my football pitch. Pesky crows. That told them.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05CROWS CAW Oh! Oh, dear.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11Meanwhile, in the clubhouse, Freddie's got some important news.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Huddle up, pups. As you can see, we're a doggy down today.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Where's Rex?
0:05:16 > 0:05:21- The wee chap has a poorly paw, so he's had to go to the doctor.- Oh!
0:05:21 > 0:05:24- PANTING - Hello, everybody. Sorry I'm late.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Whoops! Ooh.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Good to see you, Rex. - Good to see you too.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Wherever you are.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Oh... I thought you hurt your paw, not your head.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39Mum says I've to wear this collar till my bandage comes off.
0:05:39 > 0:05:42It stops me from nibbling my paw when it itches.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45HE SMACKS HIS LIPS Are you going to play with us?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Yeah, I can still kick footballs. Look.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Aaah!
0:05:50 > 0:05:54So you can, laddie. Let's get training.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Go, Pups!
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Oh! Oh, bones.
0:06:01 > 0:06:07So the pups are ready for training but I'm not sure the pitch is.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Cheeky crows keep gobbling up my grass seed. Shoo!
0:06:11 > 0:06:14CROWS CAW Shoo!
0:06:14 > 0:06:18Not to worry. We'll play some games on the training pitch instead.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Good luck.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23Oh! I think I'll need it.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26With the training underway,
0:06:26 > 0:06:30- the pups are practising their ball skills.- Whoo-hoo!
0:06:30 > 0:06:35- Great dribbling, Benny. Your turn, Rex.- Ha-ha! Easy.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Whoops! Er... Who turned out the lights?
0:06:38 > 0:06:41This wobbly cone is really tricky, Freddie.
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Oh...
0:06:44 > 0:06:48- Rex! Over here. - Oh, pass to me, Rex. Rex?
0:06:50 > 0:06:54# It's hard for Rex not to fall When he can't even see the ball! #
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Yay!- Uh-oh. - THEY SCREAM
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Sorry, Cheer-fleaders! Don't suppose you've seen the ball?
0:07:00 > 0:07:04It's over here, Rex. HE BARKS
0:07:04 > 0:07:07He's coming back! Aaaaah!
0:07:07 > 0:07:11Got it! Pickles? Where did it go?
0:07:11 > 0:07:14- Aah, there is it. - Pass it to me, Rex.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17No problem, Geraldine. Ruffffff.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21- Did you get it?- Not quite, Rex.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24HE PANTS They're eating everything in sight!
0:07:24 > 0:07:28CROWS CAW That's not even a seed!
0:07:28 > 0:07:32Oh, dear.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36Good job there's plenty more footballs for the pups to play with.
0:07:36 > 0:07:40- Ready, Rex?- Sure am. Watch this!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Aaaaah!
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Oh, bones.
0:07:44 > 0:07:48- I can't play football if I can't see the ball.- Yes, you can, Rex.
0:07:48 > 0:07:53- You just need to think of another way to play.- I can't, Freddie.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56I'd better sit out before someone gets hurt.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00HE WHIMPERS ALL: Awww.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- CROWS CAW - This bench is really comfy.
0:08:03 > 0:08:09What a beauty. My scare-flea will keep those crows away.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12CROWS CAW
0:08:12 > 0:08:14Oh, it's no use.
0:08:14 > 0:08:20I'll never get this pitch reseeded now.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Shoo!
0:08:22 > 0:08:26- Aaaaah! - HE HOWLS
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Rex? Why aren't you playing football with the rest of the pups?
0:08:30 > 0:08:33Cos I can't see the ball with this healing collar on.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36But football is a game for everyone.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40Just because you can't see the ball doesn't mean you can't play.
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Oh. MONSTER! Aah!
0:08:44 > 0:08:48Oh, don't be daft. It's just my scare-flea.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51It was supposed to scare those greedy crows away
0:08:51 > 0:08:55but your noisy howling did a much better job.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58If only your scare-flea could be as noisy as me.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00HE GASPS Good thinking.
0:09:03 > 0:09:07That's the last of the junk from my tool shed.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10Oh.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14And our new, noisy scare-flea is finished!
0:09:16 > 0:09:21BELLS JINGLE Hey, it works a treat. Thanks, Rex.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25These noisy, old things have given me an idea to help you too.
0:09:25 > 0:09:30If you can't see the ball, maybe we can make a ball that you can hear.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34Sorry, Mrs Scare-flea, we'll need to borrow your head.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38Ha-ha! Jingle, jingle.
0:09:40 > 0:09:46- Hey, everybody. Look at this! - Oh, wow. A noisy football.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48It's got a bell inside.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51If I follow the noise, I can find the ball.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Ha-ha! Well done, Rex.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Maybe we could all play a game with your special, new ball.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04CROWS CAW
0:10:04 > 0:10:06BELLS JINGLE
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Ha-ha! Go on, Rex.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Look at the young pup go.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13Looks like he's found a great way to keep track of the ball.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17Remember, pups, listen out for the ball and for each other.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19FOOTBALL JINGLES
0:10:19 > 0:10:23Pass it to me, whoever's got it.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25Here it comes, Geraldine. Rufffff!
0:10:25 > 0:10:28Alley...oops, got it.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32- Ready, Rozzie?- Huh? - FOOTBALL JINGLES
0:10:32 > 0:10:34# Rex's skill is a big surprise
0:10:34 > 0:10:37# He can use his ears Instead of his eyes! #
0:10:37 > 0:10:40THEY SCREAM
0:10:40 > 0:10:44Whoops. Sorry, Cheer-fleaders. I couldn't hear the ball.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Ha! It's great to see the whole team back in action.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51- Here's to Rex for a sound idea. - CROW CAWS
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Hey! Mind where you're pecking.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58He shoots. He scores! Ha-ha!
0:10:58 > 0:11:02Oh, Rex, you looked so funny with that cone on!
0:11:02 > 0:11:06- I know. I couldn't see a thing. - Hey, where's Rachel?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- Hm... Oh! - HE LAUGHS
0:11:09 > 0:11:13- There she is. Rachel!- Rachel! Over here.- Hi, guys.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17I've been practising my listening skills. If I really listen well,
0:11:17 > 0:11:22- I know exactly where you are. - Can you tell where I am now?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24You're there, Rex.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25What about now?
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Now you're there.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31SHE LAUGHS You won't catch me out, Rex.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Do you guys remember how to listen well?
0:11:33 > 0:11:34WHISTLE BLOWS
0:11:34 > 0:11:40You need to focus, hear the sound and think.
0:11:42 > 0:11:47- Right, everyone. Who fancies a game?- Yeah!- Yeah.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51So, I split you up into two teams. We've got the Horns.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55- Horns, give me your best honk, honk, honk!- Honk, honk, honk!- Nice.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59And we've got the Bells. Give me your best ding-aling-aling.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02- Ding-aling-aling!- Fantastic. Let's take a look
0:12:02 > 0:12:07with Geraldine, Rex, and Rozzie to find out how to play.
0:12:07 > 0:12:11To play this game, you'll need to use your best listening skills.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14Stand with your backs to the obstacle course.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17When the whistle blows, the first team-mate turns,
0:12:17 > 0:12:20runs to the tunnel and crawls through it.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24At the end of the tunnel, Horns, you must honk the horn
0:12:24 > 0:12:27and, Bells, you must bring your bell.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Then you run through the hoops.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33At the end of the hoops, you honk the horn and ring the bell again.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37Finally, you run to the footballs, take a shot at goal
0:12:37 > 0:12:41and then hold your horn or ring your bell for the third time.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Your team-mate must wait
0:12:43 > 0:12:47till they've heard the third horn or bell before they start.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51The winners are the team to get all three team-mates to the end first.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52- Hooray!- Yahoo!
0:12:53 > 0:12:57Three, two, one...
0:12:57 > 0:12:59And away they go. Come on, teams.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01They're flying through those tunnels.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Honk those horns!
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- What fast feet.- Don't forget to ring those bells.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Great work, Lorena.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10HORN HONKS Quickly through those hoops.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12She's making that look easy.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16- BELL RINGS Shoot for the goal.- Goal!
0:13:18 > 0:13:19And another!
0:13:19 > 0:13:21BELL RINGS, HORN HONKS
0:13:21 > 0:13:23- Away we go again.- Great listening.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- Whoo-hoo!- Yay!
0:13:26 > 0:13:30- Through the tunnel and up to the horn.- Well done, guys.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Listening - just one of the skills that can help you in football.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40These guys are doing it brilliantly.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41And there's a goal!
0:13:43 > 0:13:47And another! You've heard the bell. Great listening, Tienna.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Well done. The Bells are off. The Horns are off! Quick, quick!
0:13:51 > 0:13:55Ring the bell again. It's neck and neck between the teams.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Who's going to finish first? It's all to play for.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- BELL RINGS - Yay!- Whoo-hoo!
0:14:04 > 0:14:05Fantastic goal.
0:14:05 > 0:14:06Come on!
0:14:06 > 0:14:08And another.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10- HORN HONKS - Yay!- Yay!
0:14:12 > 0:14:14And time!
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Let's have a replay.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22Both teams took on the course superbly, ringing bells,
0:14:22 > 0:14:25honking horns and listening well.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Let's go to Footy Pups, Geraldine and Rex, for the final score.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Well done, both teams.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34The Horns got all team-mates to the end first,
0:14:34 > 0:14:38- meaning they're today's winners. - Hooray!- Whoo-hoo!
0:14:42 > 0:14:44My team today have been lively listeners.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46We've listened to animal noises,
0:14:46 > 0:14:51we've listened to clapping and we've listened to horns and bells.
0:14:51 > 0:14:56Most importantly, we've remembered to focus, hear the sound and think.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Right, that's it for today. Well done, everybody.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02- Now you've got the skills, let's pass it on.- Yeaaaah!
