Canadian ice hockey star Daniel Carcillo has had seven diagnosed concussions, suffered with headaches, slurred speech and memory loss. He is now taking on the National Hockey League and challenging them to do more to protect players from head injuries. He tells us his story and describes the uphill challenges that he is facing every day.

We hear from a young girls football team in India who have been kicked, punched and slapped by a group of men who are trying to force them to stop playing the sport they love. The girls have been hailed for their bravery and say they will continue to play football in secret.

Plus we speak to 13-year old Alysa Liu who became the youngest woman to win the US Senior National Figure Skating Championships.
