Description

Noah's dream is to become a professional footballer and the School's World Cup qualifying tournament might just be his ticket to getting signed up. He's definitely the best player in school but when he's banned from the team for a fight he didn't start, all Noah's dreams come crashing down. With the help of his best friend Stevie and some very unlikely new teammates, Noah is determined to make it - even if that does mean playing for St Mary's School for Girls'!
