 STARTING ELEVEN

'COME ON!' I SHOUTED TO MY TEAM MATES. 'LET'S START PLAYING.'

The local youth club are putting an under-elevens squad together - and Dal, Chris, Abs and Jason are determined to be picked. They know they're the best players in their school - but what if that isn't good enough and they don't make the team?

 

MISSING!

'COME ON, YOU REDS! COME ON, YOU REDS!'

Jason, Dal, Abs and Chris joined Rushton Reds - a new youth club squad - at the beginning of the season, but the team has lost their first two matches! They're all brilliant players, but they're missing chances all over the place. Jason has even missed a penalty . . .

Their coaches say soccer is about team play - and they have a great idea for a team-building exercise. But can it help the Reds win their next match?

 

STARS!

'WHO GETTING TOO BIG FOR HIS BOOTS?'

Rushton Reds are going to be famous! A TV documentary is being made about the team and Chris, Dal, Abs and Jason can't wait to show off their skills in front of the cameras.

But is it more important to look like a star - or to play well as part of the team? Will fame go their heads...?

 

GLORY!

'RUSHTON REDS FOR THE CUP!'

Abs is a striker - but can he put the ball in the back of the net when Rushton Reds meet Langton Blues in a Cup quarter-final match?

He and his team-mates - Dal, Jason and Chris - all want to win the trophy. Can they get past Langton and will the girls play their part?
