Redville Rockets

Redville Junior School’s football team – Redville Rockets - has been entered for the County Schools Cup by their ever-hopeful coach and games master Sidney ‘Knees-Up’ Knebworth.

Follow the team’s exploits in this wildly funny book. Each round of the competition forms a separate chapter and features different madcap members of the team, such as:
* Roly Bentall, the goalkeeper who keeps letting the ball go through his legs;
* Katie Sparks, a superstitious defender who simply can’t play well unless she’s wearing her lucky sock; and
* Ramon and Ramona Gupta, defenders engaged in a brother/sister sulk who won’t talk to each other off or on the field!

‘Positively sizzles with humour and suspense ... Not just for football fanatics, this is an ideal book for classroom story sessions’ Junior Education
