Ultimate Test: Episode 2

Despite the challenges of coaching two new teams of reluctant teens, sporting legend Freddie Flintoff has decided to expand his league of dreams even further. He heads to Manchester and discovers one of the most dilapidated clubs he has ever seen, with a clubhouse that is almost derelict and not enough players for even one team. Freddie sets himself an almost impossible challenge, a deadline to get it back up and running by the end of the summer.\n\nIn Blackpool, the girls' team suffers a crisis of confidence when Freddie introduces the hard ball to training, then to make matters worse, there’s a divide in the team. If they are going to play their first match, he desperately needs to get them working together. Will taking them off the pitch and into the countryside be the answer? Not everyone is impressed with the new surroundings, yet Freddie is determined to find a way to unite the team.\n\nMeanwhile in Liverpool, the Bootle boys continue to push boundaries with their behaviour, but Freddie’s chat with local lad Michael reveals some of the challenging upbringings the boys have had to deal with.
