After a near-fatal accident Jamie MoCrazy is climbing an alternative peak

Live Saturday morning global sports show with reports, debate and humour.

Jamie MoCrazy tells us how she鈥檚 rebuilt her life and become an advocate for survivors of brain injury after almost being killed in a skiing accident.

MoCrazy was seriously injured when attempting a trick at freestyle skiing鈥檚 World Tour Finals in Canada in 2015. She has since returned to the mountain to get married and is back skiing.

Professional mixed martial artist and former footballer Aaron Aby discusses being an athlete with cystic fibrosis, exceeding medical expectations and overcoming stage 3 testicular cancer. Aby鈥檚 parents were told he was unlikely to live beyond his teenage years but that didn鈥檛 stop him becoming a promising footballer, who played in Wales youth teams with Aaron Ramsey, before switching to Mixed Martial Arts.

Caroline Marks tells us how her family helped her reach the top of surfing, why she鈥檚 inspired by Simone Biles and how she has unfinished business at the Paris Olympics. The American prodigy became a World Champion for the first time earlier this year.
