Get Sporty

Episode 14: Cricket

First broadcast: on CBeebiesLatest broadcast: on CBeebies HD

Super scientist Nina and her young Experimenters travel the UK in search of sporting wonders. With the help of Nina's five animated sense Neurons, they explain why sports people are so amazing and how we can all get out and get sporty.

Nina investigates how we can get better at catching and throwing - with the help of Luke, her sight neuron.

Experimenters Brandon and Ore visit Nina in her lab and discover that it's easier to catch big balls than small balls. They then visit Edgbaston cricket ground and meet some cricket players to find out about catching and how they can tell where the ball is going to land. Finally, they have a go at throwing for themselves and discover how to throw as far as they can. Show less
