The Winning Tackle - a story about football for teenage girls (and maybe a few boys) (Paperback)

The Gang of 3 (three very different personalities, Kirsty, Suzie and Zoe) form the spine of the Greenside Girls u/14 football team. After a disastrous first date, Kirsty, the team's feisty captain and midfield dynamo, loses the plot and gets herself sent off, costing her team two vital promotion points. Is Kirsty strong enough to overcome this lowest moment of her short life and fulfil her quest for football honours, true romance and the perfect pork pie? And why is an unexpected third card so vital for her future happiness? The Winning Tackle is the sequel to the popular The Winning Touch and sees the return of colourful characters like Meathook, Adriano and Killer Kev. Which is more important: losing in style or winning ugly? Is it possible to play the beautiful game and win?
