Bookroo's summary

Ted Gaddy, overshadowed by his sister's impressive soccer skills, seeks his own moment of glory. Inspired by a legendary fullback's near-goal, Ted learns a bold move to win the crowd's cheers. But as he prepares to execute his plan, he wonders if his sister is plotting to stop him. Can Ted outshine his sister and score the ultimate victory, or will sibling rivalry thwart his dreams on the field?

From the publisher

KEYNOTE The ninth entry in Matt Christopher’s SOCCER ‘CATS features fullback Ted Gaddy. DESCRIPTION Ted Gaddy is tired of his sister’s amazing “secret weapon” throw-in getting all the applause and attention during games. But what can a fullback do to make people cheer? Then Coach Bradley tells a story of a fullback who almost made a goal. Ted learns how to do the same thing that fullback did, hoping that he, too, will get a chance at scoring. But is his sister trying to keep him from carrying out his plan?
