Sam Kerr has only been playing soccer for a few months after switching from AFL and now her team are playing in the finals! Sam can't believe it! But when her best friend, Dylan, is appointed team captain, Sam is worried that his shyness might get in the way. Together with her other bestie, Indi, they must find a way to help him overcome his nerves.
She is also busy on the home front. New neighbours have moved in next door and Sam has become friends with Jake and his younger brother Will. But strange things start happening. After losing her new water bottle, her soccer boots and then when her dog Penny disappears from the garden, Sam has had enough. It's time to get to the bottom of the mystery while at the same time preparing for her finals match. There is a lot to deal with for the young soccer superstar!
Matildas superstar Sam Kerr's incredible story!
It's official! Eleven-year-old Sam Kerr is a fully-fledged soccer tragic! So, when the school's annual Sports Day comes around, she is disappointed when soccer isn't on the list of activities.
Sam goes on a mission to get her beloved game added to the program. With help from her best friends, Indi and Dylan, she petitions her classmates to create the first-ever soccer team in the history of her school. But will Chelsea stir up trouble and ruin everything?
On the home front, Sam and her siblings are organising a surprise party for their parents' wedding anniversary. But things aren't going to plan! And with her team's grand final just around the corner, there's a lot to deal with … even for a soccer superstar in the making!
After a rough start, Sam Kerr settles into playing soccer for the Knights. But there's so much to learn - new rules and positions and strategies … Lately, it seems like soccer is the only thing she can think about.
When she finds out she'll have to wear a dress (gross) and dance in front of a hundred people (terrifying) at her cousin's upcoming wedding, Sam feels like she's all but had enough. So why isn't her best friend Indi supporting her? And why is school bully Chelsea suddenly a bit … nice?
Will Sam be able to mend her friendships - and score a few goals in the meantime - before it's too late?
Sam Kerr is an Aussie Rules fan through and through.
When she's excluded from her team she doesn't know what to do. Netball? No thanks. Chess? Bleugh.
Her best friends Dylan and Indi think she should flip from Aussie Rules to soccer - and it doesn't seem so bad at first. The coach is OK. The team seems nice enough …
But with Chelsea the school bully on her case and the pressure of learning new rules weighing her down, will it all be too much? Will Sam give up - or will she make the flip?
