29/11/2017 Newsround

Good morning, I'm Hayley,

and this is Wednesday

morning's Newsround.

Your top stories in

the next few minutes.

We meet this somersaulting teenager!

Plus the street that's

outshining the rest.

OK, time for a quick

round-up of the other

top sports stories today.

Amazing news for women's

football this morning -

England made it three wins out

of three in World Cup qualifying

as they thrashed

Kazakhstan 5-0 last night,

Nikita Parris scoring

the third goal here.

They're second in their group

after leaders Wales beat Bosnia 1-0.

Northern Ireland won

3-1 against Slovakia.

Manchester United beat Watford 4-2,

Jesse Lingard here with the pick

of the goals, to narrow the gap

on rivals City to five points

at the top of the Premier League.

Talking of goals,

look at this one from

Leicester's Riyad Mahrez

that helped the former

champions beat Tottenham 2-1.

Andy Murray's announced his

plans to help the

next generation of young athletes.

The two-time Wimbledon champion

is starting a new talent management

company so he can help children

succeed in lots of different sports.

Hi, I'm Andy Murray,

British tennis number one,

and my message to the young

sportspeople is

that you're all going to have

setbacks along the way.

Everybody gets them.

You're going to have

disappointments, you might not get

selected for your team,

you might lose in

big finals, but that's OK.

It's not a bad thing.

You're going to have people

when you lose these matches

telling you you can't do it,

you know, you're not capable.

You're always going to have

negativity out there,

but if you keep believing in

yourself, if you keep working hard,

you will get there.

so go out there and do it.

Good luck.

Next, it's pretty hard

to do a backflip,

but imagine managing

it in a wheelchair.

Well, Lily Rice is the first woman

in the UK to do just that!

She tells us all about how

she managed this awesome trick.

I'm Lily Rice, I'm 13 years

old, and I ride WCMX.

WCMX stands for

wheelchair motocross.

It involves riding

a wheelchair in a skatepark.

You ride the wheelchair

like a BMXer would ride a BMX,

or a skateboarder would ride

a skateboard, or a scooter

would ride a scooter.

I started riding early March,

and we just, like, did it on a

few banks, which are basically

like small hills going up and down.

But as my confidence increased,

I started to try bigger ramps,

and then eventually did a small

quarter pipe, which

is about two feet.

And I felt so happy when I did that.

But now, looking back

on that, I think that is

nothing compared to

what I am doing now.

The backflip wasn't really a target,

I kind of just arrived at

the skatepark and I was like,

"I want to try a backflip".

Practised into a foam pit first,

which is like a big

ramp going up into bits

of foam, basically.

It kind of describes itself.

Then I moved onto a resi ramp,

which is a normal ramp made for

practising tricks.

Once I landed it, I was,

like, really happy.

I was ecstatic and I screamed.

It is different to what

other people are doing.

I go to the skate park,

and people are like, why is there a

wheelchair here?

Then I go onto one of the ramps,

and they are like,

oh, my God.

I'd like to try a front flip

now that I can do a backflip.

No woman has ever done

a front flip, so I

would be the first woman to do that.

Skateboarding is going to

the Olympics next year, and I really

hope WCMX can go to

the Paralympics as well.

I want to inspire others and show

people that you can do

whatever you want.

You just have to put

your mind to it.

An entire street in Hampshire

has been decorated

with festive lights by a man

who really loves Christmas.

He started persuading every

one of his neighbours

to decorate their homes

13 years ago.

This year, hundreds of people turned

up to see the switch-on.

So far, around £50,000 has

been raised for charity,

and the lights attract

thousands of people

in the run-up to Christmas.

Go online to get all the details of

the royal wedding. I hope I've got a

ticket in the post. Plus if you are

a basketball fan we have some great

steps from the Harlem Globetrotters.

Thanks for watching.

I'm back in half an hour.
