THE YOUTH OLYMPICS ARE HERE! And we're back to go over all the fun and action from the first week in Dakar as the Olympics get their first-ever taste of Africa in style! What did we think of the opening ceremony? Are we all in favour of giant continent displays? Was it as full of African vibes as we thought it would be? And just what did we make of that rather unusual athletes' parade? Plus, with plenty of sporting action to get through, we dive into some of the more unique disciplines on show at the Youth Olympics, from a version of 'baseball' that isn't really baseball, to the incredible action of futsal and the all-important question of whether wushu is actually any good to watch. Get your ears ready and your youthful vibes on point for another epic OTP episode!
