0:05:50 > 0:05:52Naomi holding a great defence stance there,
0:05:52 > 0:05:55but Mac is trying to knock her out of the way.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Lots of encouragement from the Red dugout,
0:05:59 > 0:06:01but there seems to be a bit of a stalemate on the pitch.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- MAC:- Kian!
0:06:03 > 0:06:07- You take it that way. - Mac trying to talk tactics to Kian.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11The Blues need to create space so they can get the bauble past.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17and Kian is able to push the bauble away.
0:06:19 > 0:06:23Ooh, a little slip from Mac there. Something funny, Gabrielle?
0:06:23 > 0:06:27Kian attempts to pass the bauble down the side of the pitch
0:06:27 > 0:06:31while Mac is concentrating on keeping Naomi away.
0:06:31 > 0:06:32Good defending there, Naomi.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Remember, she can't step out of the centre circle.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39But Kian is through and the bauble is clear,
0:06:39 > 0:06:41but straight into the corner!
0:06:41 > 0:06:47Mac is still one on one with Naomi. Can Kian bounce the bauble out?
0:06:47 > 0:06:48Oh, Naomi's making a dash for it!
0:06:48 > 0:06:50But Mac has blocked her,

0:07:08 > 0:07:10And the Reds are straight to the bauble,
0:07:10 > 0:07:14but Josh for the Blues also has it covered.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18Lots of pushing of spheres, but not a lot of bauble movement yet.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21Blue Josh looks steadfast in his defence,
0:07:21 > 0:07:25but Red Joshua creates a gap, and the impasse is now over.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28There's a clash of Joshs as Gabrielle nips down
0:07:28 > 0:07:31the side of the pitch. Kian is excited.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34Joshua continues to hold Josh away.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38Now, can Gabrielle manoeuvre the bauble out of the corner?
0:07:38 > 0:07:41It seems well and truly stuck.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44She needs to get on the right side of it.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47That should do the trick!
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Josh can't leave the circle, but Joshua's just making sure,
0:07:50 > 0:07:54and Gabrielle has regained control of the bauble.

0:21:43 > 0:21:45for letting that miss.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47The belt's getting faster.

0:24:30 > 0:24:34Player one needs a head for heights to secure the first baton.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37Player two must find the one way out of the tunnel traps.
0:24:37 > 0:24:42Player three completes the fencing foil to release the final baton.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46Only then can player four race to the finish line.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Will The Ultimates stay out in front,
0:24:50 > 0:24:55or can The Awesome Foursome leap ahead to Showdown gold?
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Joshua for The Ultimates, you have got a one-second head start.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- So you will go on the first beep. - BEEP
0:25:01 > 0:25:05And Kian for The Awesome Foursome, you will go on the second beep.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09BEEP In three, two, one!
0:25:09 > 0:25:10Showdown!
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Joshua is off
0:25:12 > 0:25:14and Kian is fast on his tail.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18Joshua really making use of that one-second head start,
0:25:18 > 0:25:22but Kian not far behind. Both racing for the baton.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26It's Joshua first for the Reds and there's Kian.
0:25:27 > 0:25:32Joshua is flying down, but Kian's right behind him.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Every second counts in this game.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39There's the Reds' handover, and the Blues are about to do the same.
0:25:39 > 0:25:43Channelle is through the hurdles and straight to the tunnel traps.
0:25:43 > 0:25:47But Kian needs to release the Blue baton! Yes! He's done it.
0:25:47 > 0:25:51Quick pass to Mum, and she too makes her way to the tunnel traps.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Remember, only one tunnel has an exit,
0:25:54 > 0:25:56and both teams are struggling to find it.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Claire's changed her mind,
0:26:00 > 0:26:02but Channelle's got the right one.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04She's passed the baton to Naomi,
0:26:04 > 0:26:07who starts to fence like there's no tomorrow.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11Claire's out! Over to Dad Mac for balloon popping.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15Naomi passes the baton to Gabrielle. Mac is still popping.
0:26:15 > 0:26:20But Gabrielle racing. She's at the hurdles.
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Oh, she taken a tumble!
0:26:23 > 0:26:26Will this give Blues a chance to catch up? Josh is away.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29But no, Gabrielle's back on her feet
0:26:29 > 0:26:31and races to victory!
0:26:33 > 0:26:35What a close battle!
