The Worst Football Team Ever

This is about the football-playing members of the two schools who, although playing in the same game, turned out entirely different from each other and from the supposed mission of high school sports. The coaches of the two squads were severe, but one of the coaches of the losers found some humor in this grab bag of players he had inherited. The book traces the happenings on the gridiron of a small school football team that cannot win a game. Their winless situation is created by lack of size, leadership, and talent. There is a rough side to the treatment parceled out by the two coaches methods, and at least in one case, there is some humor involved. The quarterback of the losing team was the books author, who had an insiders look at the game as his dad was the teams former coach. The author spices up the story by exploring sensitive topics, including interracial dating, teen smoking and drinking, and premarital sex, not to mention the woman beating, which led to a campus murder.

Covering individual teams (Hello, 1972 Miami Dolphins!) but also the best eras in famous teams' history, such as the Patriots of the '00s and the Steelers of the late 1970s, the editors at Sports Illustrated Kids dissect the best of the gridiron to show the whys and hows of team building, brilliant strategy, player combinations, and that special magic that the greatest teams have and which owners can't buy--even if there weren't a salary cap. Player profiles, stats and records, and thrilling narratives show the march to the Super Bowl and into history of America's favorite spectator sport. Amazing photos, insider stories, and fun facts capture the cultural phenomenon that is football in the U.S.! The SI Kids editors won't forget college ball! Picture the 2001 Miami Hurricanes cruising to the national title with a perfect season that was fun and full of swagger, displaying an absurd level of talent with six first-team All-Americans leading the way.

The Worst Football Team - a brand new football comedy from bestselling Football Boy Wonder author Martin Smith. This is a football story with a difference. A funny football book that children will love .. and will make the adults reading with them laugh out loud too. Because who doesn't love an underdog soccer story? Meet Pellie, Hildy, Dribbler, Bolo, Stevie, Dazza, and Brendan. These are the players for Lane FC Meerkats Under-7s. Once you've seen Meerkats play, you won't forget - because they're the worst football team the world has ever seen. I know. I know. They can't be that bad. I'm being harsh. Or too dramatic. Trust me. I'm not. They are TERRIBLE. No, they're even worse than that. Most of the team can't kick the ball, or run in the right direction. Half of them don't even like football. One of the team does like spiders, though. And he talks about them - ALL OF THE TIME. Coach Mark is great. He's been training Meerkats for a year. And he has high hopes for them. They still can't attack, defend or pass. But they are great at causing trouble in all sorts of different ways. The football season is here, and the first big match is nearing close. Can Coach Mark inspire the Meerkats to glory? HA HA HA! Good one. No, just no. Don't be so silly. But Coach Mark hopes they might score a goal - someday. ABOUT THE BOOK: The Worst Football Team is aimed at children aged 5-8. It is a hilarious story of being part of a team, fun, poop, football, and spiders. Children will love the crazy characters - and parents will chuckle at poor Coach Mark's despair as they read along with their kids. So many kids' football books are serious. Not this book. In fact, it is the exact opposite. Funny soccer books for children are hard to find. This, I hope, fills the gap. An absurd number of boys and girls play football every week. They're all better than Lane FC Meerkats Under-7s, I assure you. But it's not always about the result, is it? Half the time, it's the adventures that a team has before, during and after a match. And I hope - in some small way - everyone, whether child or adult, can relate to The Worst Football Team.
