'Can the new recruits kick it with best young talent in the country?

'12-year-old Nick dreams about football and his dreams are big . . . State squad, Junior Australian team, A-League, Socceroos and that's just for starters. So when Nick wins a scholarship to the prestigious National School of Football, his dreams look set to come true. But what Nick doesn't realise is that he is just another young gun in a school brimming with skilled footballers. Enter Bazzo, Lexi, Grace and Kane. In one way or another, Nick's new schoolmates are going to make his time at the NSF unforgettable. And, when word gets out that Nick's dad is none other than former Socceroo and Arsenal star, Shane Young, all eyes are on him.

'Does Nick have what it takes to make it at Football High or will reality hit like a well-struck soccer ball to the back of the net?' (Publication summary)
