Description: Hayley wants to play netball, but there are not enough girls to form a team. Mum's got the solution, boys! When three boys put their hands up to play for St Pat's, the other team is afraid the boys will prove too strong, even if they haven't got any experience. The local paper stirs things up and Brett thinks he's leading a netball revolution, but Seamus doesn't want to know. And what's the thing between Alex and Duncan? Suggested level: primary, intermediate.
