Rachel Yankey, top international footballer | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
and all-round sporting superstar. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
But when Rachel's not scoring goals for her team, | 0:00:50 | 0:00:54 | |
she's playing with the Footy Pups. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
THEY CHEER | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Hi, everyone. We're all warmed up, so it's time to get moving. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:07 | |
Today, on my team, we have... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
Number one, Emily. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:13 | |
Fantastic, Emily! | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
Number two, Dan. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:18 | |
Oh, nice dribbling, Dan! | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
Number three, Paige. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Oh, I like that, Paige! | 0:01:25 | 0:01:26 | |
Number four, George. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
Well done, George! | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
Number five, Erin. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
Fantastic dribbling, Erin! | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Number six, Finley. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
Woo, look at that, Finley! | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
Also joining us are Footy Pups, Rex and Rozzie. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
So, that's today's team. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
CHEERING | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
-OK, guys, gather round. It's team-talk time! -ALL: -Yay! | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
Today, we're going to look at cricket. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:58 | |
It's a sport you play in teams with a bat and a ball. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
Cricket is quite different to football, | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
so I've invited along a friend to tell us a bit more. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Niall O'Brien - | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
international cricketer, superstar batsman and wicketkeeper. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:15 | |
When Niall's not playing for Ireland... | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
he's playing with his county cricket club. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Hi, Niall. Thanks for joining us. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:25 | |
-Thanks for having me. -Can you explain cricket to us? | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
Yeah. Cricket is like football. There's two teams. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
One team bats and protects the wicket, | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
while the second team bowls. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
The wickets are three poles with two pieces of wood on top, called bails. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
It's like a goal in football. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
A bowler tries to hit it and the batsman defends it. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
Wow! Sounds exciting. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
So, we strike the ball with our bat, instead of our boot. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Is there a special way to hold the bat? | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
If we place one hand on top of the handle, second hand underneath, | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
and you can see we've got two Vs. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
-That's how we hold it. -OK. Brilliant. Shall we have a go? | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
Let's see if we can make those Vs with your hands. Well done. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-Excellent! -What are the three things to remember when batting? | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
We need to make sure we lift the bat up, not too high. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
Step towards the ball and swing through. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
-So, Niall's set us up with a game. What do we need to do here? -OK. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:21 | |
The aim is to keep the ball on the ground, | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
line ourselves with the ball and hit it through the arch. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
Great start from the team! | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
Lift your bat back, step forward and then swing your bat forward to hit. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:34 | |
Yeah! | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
Brilliant stuff! | 0:03:36 | 0:03:37 | |
See that power? | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
Nice! | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
Dan lines it up. Lovely! | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
Focus your eyes on the ball. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
-Yeah! -Yes! | 0:03:45 | 0:03:47 | |
One V, two Vs, OK? That will give you control. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:51 | |
Emily takes a swing. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:52 | |
Nicely done! | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
That's a good shot! | 0:03:54 | 0:03:56 | |
Whilst these guys keep practising, here's a reminder for you at home. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:01 | |
Raise your bat, step forward | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
and swing the bat forward to strike the ball. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
Now, we have a challenge. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:10 | |
Throw the ball to your partner who needs to bat it away. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
Off you go! | 0:04:14 | 0:04:15 | |
Good bowl from Dan. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
Great hit! | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
-Yeah! -Yeah! | 0:04:19 | 0:04:21 | |
Keep your eyes on the ball, | 0:04:21 | 0:04:22 | |
so you can get the timing right of when to swing for it. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
Lovely stuff! | 0:04:25 | 0:04:27 | |
Too early. Step into it. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
Great advice, Niall. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:33 | |
Awesome! | 0:04:33 | 0:04:34 | |
Brilliant, Emily! High five on that one! | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
Oof! Good catch! | 0:04:40 | 0:04:42 | |
-Well done, Rex! -Thanks, Rozzie! Cricket is fun, isn't it? | 0:04:42 | 0:04:47 | |
Remember that time Freddie taught us how to play? | 0:04:47 | 0:04:50 | |
Ha-ha! Oh, yes. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:51 | |
Welcome to Pupton Park, where the Cheer-fleaders | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
have turned the ground... into a cricket pitch?! | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
Woo-hoo! | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
-Agh! -Woo-hoo! Hee-hee! | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
Huddle up, Pups! | 0:05:05 | 0:05:06 | |
Today, you're going to play a game | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
of cricket against the Cheer-fleaders. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
But we've never played cricket before! | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
Oh! This looks scary! | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
Don't worry, Pups. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
Cricket uses some of the same skills we use in football. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
And, look, I've made a cricket scoreboard | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
out of some bits of wood I found in my shed. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
Isn't she beautiful? | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
Oh! | 0:05:32 | 0:05:33 | |
In cricket, one team bowls the ball, to try and hit these bits of wood, | 0:05:35 | 0:05:40 | |
called a wicket. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:41 | |
The other team protects the wicket, using their bat to hit the ball. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:47 | |
The batting team works in pairs. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
When they hit the ball, they score points, known as runs, | 0:05:49 | 0:05:53 | |
by running from one wicket to the other! Woo-hoo! | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
What fun! | 0:05:57 | 0:05:58 | |
Agh! | 0:06:02 | 0:06:03 | |
If a fielder catches the ball before it bounces, | 0:06:03 | 0:06:08 | |
the batter is out. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
The batter is also out if the bowler hits the wicket with the ball. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:15 | |
Ah, wow! Let's play! | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
Oh, can I bowl first? | 0:06:18 | 0:06:19 | |
Sounds like a Puppy Plan! | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
Ha-ha-ha! | 0:06:26 | 0:06:27 | |
Being wicketkeeper is just like being a goalkeeper - | 0:06:27 | 0:06:31 | |
I get to practise my catching and guard the wicket. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
Ooh! The ball's a bit smaller, though. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
Hee-hee-hee! | 0:06:36 | 0:06:37 | |
Oh! | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
You won't catch any cricket balls here, lad. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:42 | |
That's what I'm hoping! | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
Woo-hoo! | 0:06:45 | 0:06:46 | |
Catch it, laddie! Agh! | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
-Oh! -Argh! Oh! Argh! | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
I'm supposed to chase the ball! The ball isn't supposed to chase me! | 0:06:54 | 0:06:59 | |
Yippee! Four runs! | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
Argh! | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
Woof! Ha-ha! | 0:07:09 | 0:07:10 | |
Nice catch, Benny. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
Pickles, stay still. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
-Huh? -I'm trying to hide from the ball! | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
Ooh! | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
Oh, what a howler! | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
Three more runs! Woohoo! | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
Those Fleas have been rushed off their feet, | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
scoring an impressive 60 runs. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
Now, it's the Pups' turn to bat, but what's Rex wearing?! | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
Ha-ha! | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
This'll stop that naughty ball from hitting me! Ha-ha! | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
Whoa! | 0:07:42 | 0:07:43 | |
Oof! | 0:07:43 | 0:07:44 | |
Do you need a hand up, Rex? | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
No, thanks. I'm just going to stay right here. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:51 | |
First in to bat for the Pups is Geraldine. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
Allez! Woo, woo, woo! | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
Well done, Geraldine. That's one run. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
Now, it's my turn. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
Yah! | 0:08:07 | 0:08:08 | |
Oh! Mind my beautiful scoreboard! | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
Geraldine is running, | 0:08:16 | 0:08:18 | |
-but a Flea fielder has hit the wickets and she's out! -Oh! | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
And as Benny goes in to bat, the score is now...erm... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
Oh! Hang on a minute! Oh! | 0:08:26 | 0:08:29 | |
..60 runs to the Fleas | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
and 16 to the Pups. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
-Yeah! -Woof! | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
-Out! -Oh! | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
-Oh! -Do you want me to bat next, Rex? | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
Thanks, Rozzie. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
Freddie, can I, uh, miss my go? I don't want that ball thrown at me. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:48 | |
Oh, that's what the bat's for, laddie. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:51 | |
You use it to deflect the ball, | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
just like you do with your foot in football. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
Watch Rozzie. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:57 | |
Quick! Run, Pickles! | 0:08:59 | 0:09:01 | |
-HE GASPS -Look out! | 0:09:03 | 0:09:06 | |
I'll save you! | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
-Oh! -Argh! | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
Great shot, Rex. You saved me and my scoreboard! | 0:09:10 | 0:09:15 | |
Uh, does that mean I can go for tea now? | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
No, I think it's your turn to bat. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
Uh-oh! | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
Whoa, whoa! | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Oof. Huh? Hmm. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Oh, Rex! | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
You're meant to hit the ball with your bat, not your tail! | 0:09:31 | 0:09:34 | |
Use the bat? Of course! | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
Oh! Yah! | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
Don't forget to run, Rex! | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
Oh, yeah. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
Ha-ha-ha! I think I'm getting the hang of this! | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
And as the match continues, | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
Rex and Pickles are the perfect pair, | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
scoring run after run! | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
Agh! | 0:09:58 | 0:09:59 | |
This is no place for my precious scoreboard! | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
Oh! | 0:10:03 | 0:10:04 | |
Looks like the Pups and Fleas have 60 runs each, | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
which means the Pups only need one run to win the match. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
Yah! | 0:10:15 | 0:10:16 | |
-Ah! We've done it! -Oh, I want to keep running! | 0:10:19 | 0:10:23 | |
Hee-hee-hee-hee! | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
Oh, at last, my scoreboard is safe! | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
Oh! | 0:10:30 | 0:10:31 | |
Oh! Whoa! | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
You! | 0:10:34 | 0:10:36 | |
Rex and Pickles have scored another six runs... | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
-BOTH: -Bow-wow! | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
..meaning the Pups have won! | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
-Oh! -HE SOBS | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
-FLEAS: -Use your bat like a football boot! | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
When you hit the ball, just swing and shoot! | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
Go, go, go... | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
-Cricket bats! -ALL CHEER | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
Oh, well done, Rex! | 0:11:00 | 0:11:02 | |
Huh? Whoa! | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
-Oh, scones! -ALL LAUGH | 0:11:04 | 0:11:08 | |
Oh, Rex! | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
There was no need to be scared | 0:11:12 | 0:11:14 | |
of that cricket ball in the end, was there, Rex? | 0:11:14 | 0:11:17 | |
No, I just needed the bat to help me strike it. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
-BOTH: -Hi, Rachel! -Hi, guys. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
R-R-R...Rachel, what have you got there? | 0:11:23 | 0:11:26 | |
Huh? Oh, it's my bat friend. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:29 | |
Rex told me to bring him along. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
Rachel, I meant your cricket bat, not a real bat! | 0:11:31 | 0:11:35 | |
-THEY LAUGH -Oh, silly me! | 0:11:35 | 0:11:39 | |
Do you guys remember how to bat in cricket? | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
Raise your bat, step forward | 0:11:42 | 0:11:46 | |
and swing the bat to strike the ball. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
-OK, guys, who fancies a game?! -ALL: -Yeah! | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
So, I've split you up into two teams. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
We've got the Reds. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:57 | |
-Reds, can I have a cheer? -ALL: -Yay! -Brilliant! | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
And we've got the Blues. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:02 | |
-Blues, let me hear you cheer! ALL: -Yay! | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
Let's take a look with the Footy Pups, to see how to play. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
Come and have a look. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:09 | |
To play this game, you need to bat, bowl and run. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
A player from one team throws the ball to a player | 0:12:12 | 0:12:15 | |
from the other team who is batting. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
They must strike the ball, | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
and if they do, they run back and forth to score a point. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:23 | |
If a ball hits the batter's wicket, they cannot run. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:28 | |
Oh! | 0:12:28 | 0:12:29 | |
After two balls, the team-mates batting and bowling swap over. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:33 | |
The winners of this game are the team who score the most points. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:38 | |
-Three, two, one... -WHISTLE BLOWS | 0:12:38 | 0:12:40 | |
Both teams look ready. Oh, it's a huge hit from Erin! | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
Emily's got her work cut out to get that ball, as Erin scores a point. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
Have another bowl, Emily. Swing your arm back. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
She strikes again. Oh, she nearly forgot to run. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:54 | |
Sensational! Another point scored! | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
Good effort, well done! | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
Wait until he gets there, Finley. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
-Finley bowls. -Go, go, go, go! | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
