    SCORE!

    I am a teen and I have read this book. Along with many other young adult books. This book is a nice book to read when you have spare time. Its interesting and shows how if you be youself, you will make more friends!

    Tyra's an Army brat, and her father has been relocated to England. Now she's leaving her best friend behind and must start over again.

    On the first day of school, she meets Alicia. Instantaneously, Alicia feels threatened and uses her popularity to make Tyra miserable.

    When she hears about the school soccer team, Tyra perks up. She thinks it might be a way to fit in. Unfortunately, Alicia was the star of last year's team. But as the season goes on, it's clear that was last year, and this year, Tyra is shinning. Can two stars be on the same team?

    The tension of the book comes on the soccer field between the two fighting stars. They're winning without using teamwork, but as they encounter better teams they need to start working together. With a championship at stake, can the rivalry between Alicia and Tyra take a backseat to sports?

    Once again, Donna King takes an every day issue and uses it to highlight a sporting drama.

    Fabulous Book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!=D

    I'm not going to give away the WHOLE book,because then, there would be no point in reading it(which you really should)! I'm NOT a soccer fan, infact, I fall asleep when I watch the game! But, this book kept me on the edge of my seat so well, that I finished in one night. Kickoff sends a good message that everyone has a sob story for why they're mean, and if you comfort them , they'll be a lot nicer to everone. This is a wonderful book, and I reccomend it to anyone with an IQ over .5, which is everyone who can read.
