The girl who travels 121 miles for football practice
Twelve year-old Catriona is a talented footballer who has been selected to train with the Scotland youth team. She and her family live on Barra in the Outer Hebrides. To keep up with training, Catriona flies over a hundred miles to the mainland sometimes more than once a week for football practice.
Her family support her dream of one day playing for Scotland. The Nine's India Grant met Catriona and her family to find out how they manage these long trips to training.
