At home, he has to deal with the absence of his dad. And, within himself, he has to deal with his temper problems. But put him on that pitch and he has something extraordinary. With the help of his granddad Mike and his friends, including his best friend Jack (Jacqueline) who is an inspirational leader, who knows, he might just get there..
