Bookroo's summary

Eight-year-old Sadiq dreams of playing football, but his parents think he's too young. Pushed into joining the track club instead, Sadiq struggles with the idea of running. Can his coach show him the thrill of racing and change his perspective? As Sadiq navigates this new challenge, he must discover if there's more to sports than just tackling and hitting. Will he find excitement in the unexpected or remain stuck in his disappointment?
