Some of you might be familiar with the name Doug Flutie, he was a quarterback in the CFL, the NFL, a Heisman trophy winner, and he was a little guy, an underdog. He was also the inspiration behind this book Game Changers. I think this book will find an audience at our school. It's a book about football, but also what it takes to be a great team player.
Here's the summary:
Ben McBain is every football team's dream player. He's a jack-of-all-trades guy that can handle almost any position. When the game is on the line, Ben's number is the one being called for the final play. But Ben wants to be the starting quarterback and the one thing standing in his way is the coach's son.
Shawn O'Brien looks the part. He has been groomed by his father, a former professional quarterback. But despite his size and arm strength, Shawn is struggling.
Ben is torn between being a good teammate and going after his own dream. As Ben finds out, Shawn isn't the easiest person to help. And when Ben gets an unexpected opportunity, the entire game will change for the both of them.
