0:00:02 > 0:00:05We searched the four corners of the UK to find the fastest,
0:00:05 > 0:00:09toughest, most agile and most accurate young athletes
0:00:09 > 0:00:14from Scotland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17Now the search is over.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Nation will battle nation over six matches
0:00:20 > 0:00:23to win points in an epic sporting tournament.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26The top two teams will go through to the grand final.
0:00:26 > 0:00:30Only one will be crowned Ultimate Sports Day champions.
0:00:30 > 0:00:33Let the games begin!
0:00:56 > 0:00:58On today's Ultimate Sports Day,
0:00:58 > 0:01:01England go head to head with Northern Ireland.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Captaining Team Northern Ireland, we have Andrew!
0:01:08 > 0:01:10CROWD CHEERS
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Followed by Sarah, Thomas and Phoebe!
0:01:15 > 0:01:16And here's their mentor.
0:01:16 > 0:01:21He's a knock-out. Boxing legend Barry McGuigan!
0:01:21 > 0:01:25CROWD CHEERS
0:01:25 > 0:01:26Barry, a boxing superstar,
0:01:26 > 0:01:29won gold as an amateur in the Commonwealth Games
0:01:29 > 0:01:32when he was 17, and went on to win the British,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35European and world titles as a pro.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38Representing Team England, it's their captain Allard...
0:01:38 > 0:01:40CROWD CHEERS
0:01:40 > 0:01:44..followed by Shanice,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Leo and Emily.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48And not forgetting their mentor.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51It's the multi-talented Olympic decathlete
0:01:51 > 0:01:55and Total Wipeout champion Dean Macey.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59CROWD CHEERS
0:01:59 > 0:02:02Dean is one of England's most successful athletes,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05having competed for over ten years in the decathlon
0:02:05 > 0:02:09and winning gold for England at the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12So, they're all set. Let's get this show on the road!
0:02:12 > 0:02:15CROWD CHEERS
0:02:17 > 0:02:19This is Sky Walker.
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Our Ultimate Sportsters start at the bottom of the towers,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25and the only way is up.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Once at the top, they'll make their way across the beam,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31before collecting each of their three medals individually
0:02:31 > 0:02:33and hanging them on the bar above.
0:02:33 > 0:02:34If they do all that
0:02:34 > 0:02:37and release their team's flag in the quickest time,
0:02:37 > 0:02:39it's maximum points.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Now it's just down to Dean and Barry to pick their players.
0:02:42 > 0:02:47The first game up today is going to be Sky Walker.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Leo, you've been up there twice now.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53Out of all of our guys, under pressure, you can deal with it. Yeah?
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- How do you feel? - I feel good, I feel good.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58I've done it a few times now, so obviously I know
0:02:58 > 0:03:02what technique I'm going to use and how I'm going to do it,
0:03:02 > 0:03:04- and I'm going to nail it.- Good lad.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07My name's Leo. I'm 13 and I'm from Essex.
0:03:07 > 0:03:08My speciality is judo.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11My ambition is to be a professional sportsman,
0:03:11 > 0:03:13but if I don't make it that far,
0:03:13 > 0:03:15I'd love to be a TV presenter when I'm older.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Who are we? ALL: England!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19What do we do? ALL: Win!
0:03:19 > 0:03:21First event is the Sky Walker.
0:03:21 > 0:03:26Sarah, you're brilliant at that, so you're picked for that, all right?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28My name is Sarah Strawbridge. I'm 14.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31I'm from County Antrim, Northern Ireland.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34My speciality is artistic gymnastics.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I applied for USD because I wanted to do
0:03:36 > 0:03:38something different other than gymnastics,
0:03:38 > 0:03:41It was a good opportunity to do lots of other sports.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44OK. Leo, Sarah -
0:03:44 > 0:03:47let's play Sky Walker.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50CROWD CHEERS
0:03:53 > 0:03:55This is a game of strength and balance.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Strength needed to get up those towers,
0:03:58 > 0:04:01and balance necessary to stay steady at the top.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03It's pretty even so far.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08Both Leo and Sarah trying to haul themselves up out of those towers.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Leo's the first to reach the five metre-high beam.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13He needs a moment to compose himself.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Sit yourself down, mate.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Dean wants him to sit down just as Sarah's doing.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21Both of them now reaching under to drag up their first medal.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Each medal worth five points,
0:04:23 > 0:04:27and there's a 15 point bonus for whoever wins the race.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29This is where it counts, Sarah.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Barry encouraging Sarah to sort her balance out.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Sarah's an artistic gymnast, so her balance should be good,
0:04:35 > 0:04:39but Leo is up first and hangs his medal up on the bar.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43He gets the first five points for England. Sarah is right behind him.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47She just about gets Northern Ireland off the mark with five points too.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Both of these athletes have competed on Sky Walker before,
0:04:50 > 0:04:53but Leo has only attempted it as part of the Ring Relay.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57He's never had to reach under the beam for medals as he's done there,
0:04:57 > 0:04:58but has adapted well.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03There goes medal number two and another five points.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Sarah has never lost on Sky Walker, so she'll be annoyed a little bit
0:05:07 > 0:05:10that she's behind Leo, but there goes her second medal.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11It's ten points apiece now,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14and it's all down to who can get that last medal the quickest.
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Leo's got his.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Sarah is close behind.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20Can Leo keep his balance? It's up.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Leo wins, and Dean is delighted.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Yes!
0:05:24 > 0:05:28From very early on in the game, Leo was just one step ahead of Sarah.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31He got up the tower first and hauled up his medal first.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Sarah didn't put a foot wrong.
0:05:33 > 0:05:38She was going at a fantastic pace too, but just not as quick as Leo.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Ultimately, Leo's speed won him the game,
0:05:40 > 0:05:43and it's a great start for England.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45CROWD CHEERS
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Well done, mate! You've done it!
0:05:50 > 0:05:53Leo, how do you like walking the skies, mate?
0:05:53 > 0:05:56I don't want to do it again. I'll leave it at that, I'm pretty sure.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Mate, you looked a bit shaky about getting on that beam
0:05:59 > 0:06:02for the first time, but once you got your focus, you were fine.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05I wanted to work out my technique. I was trying to think,
0:06:05 > 0:06:08"If I do it first time, I'm going to do it every time,"
0:06:08 > 0:06:09and obviously it worked.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12He's not done this event with the targets,
0:06:12 > 0:06:14and I know he was nervous, and I made him nervous as well
0:06:14 > 0:06:18by telling him that Sarah was fantastic at this event.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20What a great start to the competition.
0:06:20 > 0:06:24Sarah, commiserations, but up there on the beam, you looked good,
0:06:24 > 0:06:25but just not quick enough.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I took my time getting the medals on the bar.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29It was further over than I thought.
0:06:29 > 0:06:32I felt a bit unsteady, so decided to slow it down a bit.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35Leo, you picked up maximum points.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Let's see what that's done for the scoreboard.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Leo gets England off to a cracking start
0:06:39 > 0:06:41with a maximum 30 points.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43Two medals means 10 points for Sarah
0:06:43 > 0:06:44and Northern Ireland.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47But there are plenty more points still up for grabs.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56Ahead of us is 150 metres.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00An Olympic sprinter can cover this distance in about 15 seconds,
0:07:00 > 0:07:02but can our two nations run the length of it
0:07:02 > 0:07:06before The Chaser tracks them down?
0:07:06 > 0:07:08If they do, they pick up points.
0:07:08 > 0:07:12It's simple. But if The Chaser beats them, they're out of the game.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17So, all we need now is The Chaser.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26The mystery Chaser - name and age unknown.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Ambitions - none left.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30Been there, done that!
0:07:30 > 0:07:32The boys are running first today.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35This'll be their third encounter with The Chaser,
0:07:35 > 0:07:37so they know what to expect.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Taking to the blocks are Allard for England,
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Andrew for Northern Ireland, Leo for England,
0:07:42 > 0:07:44and Thomas for Northern Ireland.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49And out of the mist emerges the man they never want to meet.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50It's The Chaser.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- Set... - And they're off.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05None of these boys has been caught by The Chaser,
0:08:05 > 0:08:07so this should be a really close race.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Andrew has won both of his previous races and clocked up
0:08:10 > 0:08:12the fastest time so far. He's the one to beat.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14He's out in front with Thomas in second,
0:08:14 > 0:08:17then Leo and Allard. The Chaser has a point to prove.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20He's closing down the gap on Leo and he's overtaken him!
0:08:20 > 0:08:21No points for Leo.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Andrew crosses the line in first place, Allard in second
0:08:24 > 0:08:25and Thomas in third.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27So, The Chaser knocks Leo down
0:08:27 > 0:08:29from the dizzy heights of the Sky Walker.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Meanwhile, Allard, Thomas and winner Andrew all pick up points.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36So, who sprinted up the leaderboard
0:08:36 > 0:08:38in the first of our Chaser runs today?
0:08:38 > 0:08:42Andrew's awesome run of 17.76 seconds wins him 10 points,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44and 10 points too for Allard and Thomas.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47Northern Ireland have caught up on 30 points.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49England, though, still ahead on 40.
0:08:53 > 0:08:54This game is bonkers.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58The Ultimate Sportsters will be fed both basketballs and footballs.
0:08:58 > 0:09:00If they've got the co-ordination,
0:09:00 > 0:09:04they can shoot them in the hoop or kick them in the goal.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Ooh!
0:09:07 > 0:09:11All making sure they don't spin off the platform
0:09:11 > 0:09:14or get hit by one of these really annoying arms.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18So, who have Dean and Barry chosen to spin into action on this one?
0:09:18 > 0:09:22So, Thomas, you'll do the football, all right? Our subs will feed you.
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Keira and Jack will feed you.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26My name is Thomas.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29I'm 12 years old and I'm from Comber in Northern Ireland.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31My speciality sport is rugby,
0:09:31 > 0:09:35and I applied to be on USD just for something fun to do.
0:09:35 > 0:09:38Shanice - I've seen you kick a football as well,
0:09:38 > 0:09:39and you're not half bad at that.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42And you've seen Leo do the football spin shot.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43You're up for me, mate.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45- OK with that?- Yeah.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47When Leo did it, he got quite a few points,
0:09:47 > 0:09:49so I'll copy the technique he used
0:09:49 > 0:09:52and use the same technique that I use for the basketball.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56My name's Shanice. I'm 14 years old. I live in East London.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57My speciality is basketball,
0:09:57 > 0:10:00and I applied to be on USD because
0:10:00 > 0:10:02I wanted to prove to everyone
0:10:02 > 0:10:04how dedicated to sport I am.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06OK. Coming up for Team Northern Ireland is Thomas,
0:10:06 > 0:10:10but first, showing she's got the skills to pay them bills,
0:10:10 > 0:10:12for Team England, it's Shanice.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14CROWD CHEERS
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Let's play Spin Shot.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Stamina and accuracy are what's required to do well in this game.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Shanice off to a good start.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30We know she can shoot hoops, but how good is her football?
0:10:30 > 0:10:31Ah, she misses that,
0:10:31 > 0:10:35and whacks her head as she tries to avoid those spinning arms.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37That is a good shot.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Another basket for Shanice. Each one worth three points.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42She lines up another strike at goal,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44but that one goes low.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46Shanice scrambling up and under those spinning arms
0:10:46 > 0:10:48to get round for another three-pointer.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Unlucky. Keep it going.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53"Unlucky," says Dean, shouting encouragement all the time.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Another shot at goal, but another one goes low and wide.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Her best chance is with the baskets.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02That's what she knows, and there's another one.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05There's a happy Dean Macey. Shanice has nine points so far for England,
0:11:05 > 0:11:08and this time she finds the back of the net too.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11Another three points, and Shanice is going great guns now.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14She'll be pleased with that. Not with that shot.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17A few millimetres either way and it would've gone in.
0:11:17 > 0:11:22We're into the last ten seconds now. Can she get any more points?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Got to catch the ball, Shanice. Last couple of seconds.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25HORN BLOWS
0:11:25 > 0:11:26And time is up.
0:11:26 > 0:11:31That throw won't count, Shanice. Good try, though.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39Rugby player Thomas's turn now to show what he can do.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42He misses the hoop and runs very quickly around to the goal.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43He shoots and scores!
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Thomas off the mark with a great strike.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50He misses the hoop again, but can he score another goal?
0:11:50 > 0:11:54No, not this time. He hurtles back round for another go at the hoop.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55OK, Thomas, pause now.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58Barry telling him to pause and compose himself.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Good advice from his mentor.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Unfortunately, not paying off for Thomas just yet.
0:12:04 > 0:12:08Another attempt at the basket. Oh, and that one misses too.
0:12:09 > 0:12:13That strike went wildly high over the crossbar.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15He may be rushing things a bit.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Barry telling him to settle down and take more time over his aim,
0:12:19 > 0:12:22but Thomas doesn't seem to be listening.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- Again, Thomas. - Another miss.- Good effort.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27He's having no luck with the basket,
0:12:27 > 0:12:30but he's doing much better with the goal.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33That's the second one in. It takes his points tally up to six.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35And finally he scores a basket
0:12:35 > 0:12:38with only a few seconds remaining on the clock.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39That is it. Game over.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43Good job, mate.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46It's hard to see with those arms coming round to whack you, isn't it?
0:12:46 > 0:12:49And how hard is it to figure out where on earth you are
0:12:49 > 0:12:52when you've got balls flying at you and arms about to hit you?
0:12:52 > 0:12:55It's really hard, because you have to duck and jump.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58You've got to do everything!
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Really well done for Northern Ireland. Shanice -
0:13:00 > 0:13:03basketball comes easier to you than football, doesn't it?
0:13:03 > 0:13:04Yeah. It's a lot easier.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I got hit in the head a few times, but it didn't stop me.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Nice one. Well done, Northern Ireland.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12Let's see what that's done for the scoreboard, shall we?
0:13:12 > 0:13:17So, Shanice racked up 12 points for England and Thomas scored nine.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Overall, it means Northern Ireland now have 39 points,
0:13:20 > 0:13:22but still in the lead are England with 52 points.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Leo and Emily, I've got to say -
0:13:29 > 0:13:34out of all the athletes here, all right, you can do this.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38You can really bring us home maximum points in this one, OK?
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Tell me what you think.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41- Excited.- Excited.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43I know you can both deliver.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46So just go into it knowing that if you're on your A game,
0:13:46 > 0:13:48you should win this one.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52My name's Emily. I'm 13 years old. I come from Tavistock in Devon.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54My sporting speciality is triathlon,
0:13:54 > 0:13:56and the reason I signed up to USD
0:13:56 > 0:13:59was because it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02Shut your eyes, don't look at the others,
0:14:02 > 0:14:04be strong and hold on. OK?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07And don't have such a glum look on your face!
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Be positive, you can do it. You really can.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13My name's Phoebe, I'm 13, I'm from Belfast in Northern Ireland,
0:14:13 > 0:14:15my speciality is high jump
0:14:15 > 0:14:17and I applied to be on USD
0:14:17 > 0:14:20because I thought it sounded like an exciting opportunity
0:14:20 > 0:14:22and a great way to make new friends.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27The Hangbar - one of the simplest games on USD.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Just hold on. The first to fall
0:14:30 > 0:14:32will get a big, fat zero points.
0:14:32 > 0:14:37The last to plunge will bag a big, fat 20. So, this is it.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Emily and Leo are holding on for Team England,
0:14:39 > 0:14:43while Sarah and Phoebe are getting a grip for Team Northern Ireland.
0:14:43 > 0:14:46All right, guys. Your challenge begins on the fourth and final beep.
0:14:46 > 0:14:47Let's play Hangbar.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50CROWD CHEERS
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Look at where your hands are, all right?
0:14:54 > 0:14:58Hang Bar is a tough game of strength and control.
0:14:58 > 0:15:01These four will need nerves of steel as well,
0:15:01 > 0:15:05as the ring slowly rises higher and higher off the ground.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09So far, they all look very focused,
0:15:09 > 0:15:11but they're only 15 seconds into the game.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14When the England pair, Emily and Leo, last played Hangbar,
0:15:14 > 0:15:16they finished first and second.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Interestingly, so did Sarah and Phoebe when they last played.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Just concentrate.
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Just concentrate, Sarah.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Barry urging his girls to concentrate
0:15:26 > 0:15:28as we hit the 30-second mark.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31No-one is showing any signs of letting go yet.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33The ring continues to rise
0:15:33 > 0:15:37and the ground gets further and further away from them.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Their arms will be feeling the pain
0:15:39 > 0:15:41as we approach the 45-second mark.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46The Hangbar has nearly reached its final destination.
0:15:46 > 0:15:52The athletes just need to dig deep and hold on for as long as they can.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59They've reached one minute.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02Most competitors can't make it past two minutes, but this lot are good.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Emily came first in her last Hangbar outing,
0:16:05 > 0:16:08and she won't want to be beaten this time around.
0:16:08 > 0:16:13Everyone still hanging in there as they near 75 seconds.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Sarah also came out on top last time she played the game,
0:16:15 > 0:16:20so Emily has some strong competition to beat.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Leo looking a little uncomfortable...and he's gone!
0:16:24 > 0:16:26No points for Leo. He drops like a stone,
0:16:26 > 0:16:30but Sarah still hanging in there, as is Emily.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33Trying to keep their focus, they've hit 90 seconds now.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35COACHES SHOUT ENCOURAGEMENT
0:16:35 > 0:16:39Phoebe isn't out of it either. She looks calm and composed.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42The crowd are cheering them on, as are Dean and Barry.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45That's 105 seconds.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47It's still anyone's game.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49There's some shuffling around going on.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Oh, and Phoebe's gone!
0:16:52 > 0:16:54And so has Sarah!
0:16:54 > 0:16:57Emily and England are still unbeaten on Hangbar.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58CROWD CHEERS
0:16:58 > 0:17:01England's Leo was the first to fall.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05Then it was Phoebe, who was closely followed by team-mate Sarah.
0:17:05 > 0:17:06Emily on top once again.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Emily, you hung in there and stood the test of time.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13What's the secret to staying in there for so long?
0:17:13 > 0:17:14Feeling pain!
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Taking all the pain.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18At any point, do you think,
0:17:18 > 0:17:19"I can do this if I just hang on?"
0:17:19 > 0:17:23I just tried to hold on a little bit longer, and it worked.
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Awesome job for Team England. Well done.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Phoebe, you and Sarah did brilliantly.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30It looked like you had the measure of it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31Did you think you could do it?
0:17:31 > 0:17:34On the way up, my hands were already getting sore,
0:17:34 > 0:17:36but I just held on as long as I could.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38You did brilliantly for Northern Ireland.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Well done, England and Emily.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Let's see who's hung up the highest digits on the scoreboard
0:17:43 > 0:17:46and gone one step closer to the finals. Let's find out.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49Emily's win means 20 points for England,
0:17:49 > 0:17:53but Northern Ireland get 15 points for second and third place.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Overall, England lead 72 points to Northern Ireland's 54.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03It's 2,000 metres. It'll be a war of attrition,
0:18:03 > 0:18:07and it's going to have an awful lot of lactic endurance involved.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11I liken this to the 400 metres, and let me tell you, that is painful.
0:18:11 > 0:18:12I'm calling on my captain.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15It'll be about two minutes' worth of pain, but, mate...
0:18:15 > 0:18:18I'm up for it. I'm going to do it.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21My name's Allard. I'm 15, I'm from West Cumbria.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24My speciality is hockey, and the reason I applied to be on USD
0:18:24 > 0:18:26is because it was sport, and I love sport.
0:18:26 > 0:18:31It will incorporate stamina and power, so you've got both.
0:18:31 > 0:18:35You were quickest on the track of anybody.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37My name is Andrew, I'm 14 years old,
0:18:37 > 0:18:39I live in Hillsborough in Northern Ireland.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41My speciality is athletics.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44One of my greatest ambitions is to play rugby for Ulster.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Welcome to Bike Power.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Boys, are you ready to pedal for glory?
0:18:50 > 0:18:52After the four beeps.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53CROWD CHEERS
0:18:54 > 0:18:57This is a game of strength and stamina.
0:18:57 > 0:19:01Athlete Andrew and hockey player Allard have to grit their teeth
0:19:01 > 0:19:04and cycle for 2,000 metres, but it is a race,
0:19:04 > 0:19:06so they have to sprint the whole way.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09The bars at the bottom of your screen give you
0:19:09 > 0:19:11an indication of how the guys are doing.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14Once the bars are full, it means they've finished the race.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17They earn five points for every 500 metres.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19So far it looks like Allard, a keen mountain biker,
0:19:19 > 0:19:21is just ahead of Andrew.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23Allard pumping his fist to get the crowd behind him.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26He's still in the lead, but they aren't halfway
0:19:26 > 0:19:29through the race yet, so plenty of time for things to change.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35The crowd urging them on, and so are Barry and Dean.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Their legs will be really starting to hurt now.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40They've got to prove they have the stamina
0:19:40 > 0:19:42to keep this up for the last 1,000 metres.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Andrew, pumping those pedals furiously,
0:19:45 > 0:19:48desperately trying to keep up with Allard, who looks like
0:19:48 > 0:19:50a man on a mission.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53A mission to win and claim the bonus points for coming in first.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55I don't think he can be caught now. There it is!
0:19:55 > 0:19:57Allard races to victory.
0:19:57 > 0:19:58CROWD CHEERS
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Fantastic effort.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03I could see that was taking a strain right at the end.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- How was Bike Power? - It was brilliant.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08I just heard Dean shout, "You're nearly there,"
0:20:08 > 0:20:11and with mountain biking as well, I think that helps.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14But the muscles were hurting.
0:20:14 > 0:20:15I could see you at the end there.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- This means a lot to you, doesn't it?- Oh, yeah.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21I did it to win it for the team, win it for England,
0:20:21 > 0:20:22and go home with that trophy.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26Well, Allard certainly won that race for England, picking up 30 points.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Andrew's 15 points take Northern Ireland on to 69,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32while England hold on to the lead with 102.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Our Chaser has made his way back into the zone.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47Our girls will need to run like they've never run before
0:20:47 > 0:20:50if they want to beat him to the finish line.
0:20:53 > 0:20:58Taking to their starting positions are Shanice for England,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Sarah for Northern Ireland, Emily for England,
0:21:01 > 0:21:03and Phoebe for Northern Ireland.
0:21:05 > 0:21:11Here comes the supersonic sprinter. It's The Chaser.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18Set...
0:21:18 > 0:21:19And they're off.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23In previous races, neither Shanice nor Phoebe have ever been caught.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25They'll be keen to keep it that way.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27Emily and Sarah have never beaten The Chaser.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29The Chaser's making good ground.
0:21:29 > 0:21:33Shanice leads over Phoebe. Sarah's third, Emily at the back.
0:21:33 > 0:21:34And Emily's overtaken.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38The Chaser's caught her and he sets his sight on Sarah.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39She's overtaken too.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42The Chaser dashes Emily and Sarah's hopes once more,
0:21:42 > 0:21:43but there's no catching Shanice.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46She wins with Phoebe safely in second.
0:21:46 > 0:21:47Looking at the replay,
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Emily and Sarah sadly were no match for The Chaser.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52No points for them.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Shanice and Phoebe, though, still never been caught.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59It's pretty hard running against The Chaser cos you don't know
0:21:59 > 0:22:03when he's coming behind you, how far he is, if he's getting close.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09So, the race is over. Time to update our scoreboard once again.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Shanice and Phoebe both escape The Chaser
0:22:12 > 0:22:16and both pick up 10 points, so England still lead with 112.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Northern Ireland are on 79.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22But when it comes to the last game, there's still plenty to play for.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25It's time for the grand finale, the team relay.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29This whole arena will come into play and it's going to get frantic,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31and it starts with Bike Power.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35A 200 metre sprint will then light our towers over here.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39Once it's fully lit, it's time to initiate the Skywalker.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Our USDers will start at the bottom,
0:22:41 > 0:22:44go up the five metres, across the beam and collect
0:22:44 > 0:22:47all the rings they can before making their way down the ladder.
0:22:47 > 0:22:52And then, time to get a sprint on all the way to the bungee tower,
0:22:52 > 0:22:56and they'll bungee like they've never bungeed before
0:22:56 > 0:22:58and collect all three rings.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01Not before they've done that can our cyclists make their way
0:23:01 > 0:23:03right back to the other side of the arena.
0:23:03 > 0:23:07It'll be tough. I'm making a sweat and I haven't even done anything.
0:23:07 > 0:23:09Once they've had their 200 metre sprint,
0:23:09 > 0:23:12only then will their team-mates make their way
0:23:12 > 0:23:13to the top of the flagpole,
0:23:13 > 0:23:16collecting their rings in the process and releasing
0:23:16 > 0:23:18their national team's colours.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20For Team Northern Ireland and Team England,
0:23:20 > 0:23:23this test is a real test of their mettle.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26Believe you can win, right? Do you hear me, Andrew?
0:23:26 > 0:23:28What you've got to do is get those bounces, right?
0:23:28 > 0:23:32Sarah, up like a bullet. Get off like a rocket.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35We've got the performance, the heart, and the talent.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38All right? But we all need to work as a massive team right now.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Let's give it our best shot, absolutely our best shot.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43And if we can do that, we can win it. We really can. OK?
0:23:43 > 0:23:46That's how close it is. All right? If we do it, we're through.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50It's time for Ring Relay.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- This is it, buddy.- Yeah.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54My kids have been almost faultless throughout today.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56Barry's done a magic job with Ireland,
0:23:56 > 0:23:59and I know they'll give us a big run for our money,
0:23:59 > 0:24:02- but it's intense. I'm nervous. - It is indeed.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Barry, your team, Northern Ireland, are in this to win, right?
0:24:05 > 0:24:08We desperately need to win, so they'll give it everything.
0:24:08 > 0:24:09It's the final relay.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13It starts after the fourth and final beep. Best of luck, guys.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14Let's do it.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16CROWD CHEERS
0:24:18 > 0:24:21So, it all comes down to this, the final game.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23Over 100 points are up for grabs,
0:24:23 > 0:24:26so Northern Ireland are still in with a chance,
0:24:26 > 0:24:29but it looks like England's Shanice won't make it easy for them.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32She's leading the way in the first leg of the relay,
0:24:32 > 0:24:34the 200 metre cycle sprint.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Northern Ireland's Thomas isn't far behind.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39The bars on your screens show how much further they have to go.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42Shanice finishes first with Thomas just behind.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45They sprint off to tag their teams' Sky Walkers, Leo and Sarah,
0:24:45 > 0:24:48who begin to haul themselves up those towers.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53Leo emerges first. Sarah is close behind.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55She'll be looking for payback
0:24:55 > 0:24:58after these two met earlier on the Skywalker.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03Leo grabs the first two of 11 rings that need to be collected
0:25:03 > 0:25:06during this game. Each is worth five points,
0:25:06 > 0:25:09and there's also a 50 point bonus for the team that finishes first.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13Sarah's got her rings now, and she gracefully drops down onto the beam.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16They need to scramble down those swinging ladders now
0:25:16 > 0:25:18before they can tag their team-mates.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Both of them desperately trying
0:25:22 > 0:25:26not to get caught up on the ladders while grabbing the next two rings.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30They've both got them now, and they just need to get onto solid ground.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Leo is the first one down. He tags Shanice and Sarah tags Thomas,
0:25:33 > 0:25:36who sprints off to the base of the bungee tower.
0:25:36 > 0:25:39Allard's got his first ring, but Andrew's missed his!
0:25:39 > 0:25:41That could cost them dearly.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Allard's got his second, and Andrew has another go.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48This time he gets it, but Allard's missed his last ring.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52Andrew sweeps in to take ring number 2.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55But Allard has recovered and grabs his final ring.
0:25:55 > 0:26:00Shanice can sprint back to her bike and the next leg of the relay.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Andrew collects his third ring,
0:26:02 > 0:26:05releasing Thomas back into the game now.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09He runs back to the bike, but he'll have to ride like never before
0:26:09 > 0:26:10to catch up with Shanice,
0:26:10 > 0:26:14who's already a fair way through her 200 metre cycle.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Dean, screaming encouragement at Shanice.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19He knows this lead could be enough to clinch the game for England.
0:26:19 > 0:26:23Thomas' legs are like a whirlwind as he tries to make up lost ground.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27Can he do it? Shanice says no, as she finishes her 200 metre dash
0:26:27 > 0:26:30and tags Emily for the final leg, the flagpole.
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Nothing will stop Emily shooting up that pole, grabbing rings.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Thomas has finished. He tags Phoebe,
0:26:36 > 0:26:38but Emily launches herself into the air,
0:26:38 > 0:26:41grabbing her team's colours as she goes.
0:26:41 > 0:26:42A great win for England.
0:26:43 > 0:26:49England got all 11 rings plus 50 points for winning.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54They score 105, so England beat Northern Ireland by 217 to 114.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59How did it feel pulling the colours of England down
0:26:59 > 0:27:00and finishing out on top?
0:27:00 > 0:27:02It was really good.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04You were there at the end. Were you focused?
0:27:04 > 0:27:05What went through your head?
0:27:05 > 0:27:08I don't know if you can focus while screaming at them!
