Synopsis

Girls FC: the best team for football and friendship. Ten-year-old Eve Akboh is devastated when her friend Gemma drops out of the team. Playing isn't nearly as much fun without her. Plus, Eve's widowed mum is run ragged trying to get her and her two brothers to and from fixtures every weekend. Maybe Eve should quit too - unless there's a way to persuade Gemma to come back...Women's football is the fastest growing sport in the world. In the UK one million girls play and more than 9,000 girls' teams are registered with the FA.

Media Reviews
* Helena Pielichaty has a light touch and an effortless way of telling a story. - Anne Cassidy * This book makes football a fun activity that isn't just for boys and I hope reading the series will encourage more girls to get involved in sport from an early age. - Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson
Author Bio
Helena Pielichaty (pronounced Pierre-li-hatty) is the bestselling author of numerous children's books, including the highly successful Simone's Letters, which was nominated for the Carnegie Medal. Her series The After School Club has eight titles and the bind-up, Clubbing Together, sold more than 25,000 copies in its first six months. A local girls' under elevens team helps with the inspiration and tactical know-how for Girls FC, but Helena has been an avid fan of women's football for many years. She lives in Nottinghamshire with her husband and has two grown-up children.
