But because of COVID, the games were postponed, and the world’s best team wasn’t able to play a game against another professional team for 13 months. We spent a week with Team Captain Maggie Steffens and the rest of the team to see how they’re training to defend gold after a year hiatus.

    โ€œI spotted the shark straight away as there was a big bait ball of fish and as I got closer I could see it was also circling the diver in the water,โ€ Woods says. โ€œThe diver was fending the shark off and poking it with his spear gun. The shark then went after his float that is attached to the diver. He was charging it and trying to bite it, thrashing it about.โ€
