'Rico and Nick make a great team!' Jacqueline Wilson
-----
An empowering and authentic football story by Junior Premier League footballer Rico Hinson-King.

Charlie LOVES football. In fact, it is his life.
He practises morning, noon and night and all of his dreams come true when he gets a spot on a pro football team.
However, at Charlie's school things aren't going so well as one of his friends starts leaving him out during football. Charlie notices that other children are being left out too – just because they are different. But Charlie knows that football is for EVERYONE so he starts a team where ALL are welcome, no matter who you are or what you look like.
A heart-warming tale about the importance of including everyone.
