Product Description
Join Girls FC as they show the world what it really means to play “like a girl”!"Hi! We're twins Dylan and Daisy McNeil. We're meant to write the match-reports for our football team, but we keep getting muddled – our granny says we're something called 'dyslexic'..." Daisy and Dylan love playing football, but their captain Megan isn't very happy when they make a mess of the match-reports. The twins can't seem to arrive on time for practice, either – though living in a chaotic household, which includes ballet-mad twin brothers and countless pets, certainly doesn’t help. Luckily, their Scottish granny knows just how they can turn things around!
This is the fourth in a twelve-book series about women's football, with each charmingly-written book focusing on a different member of the football team and a different issue – all building up to the final book, which explores the future of the team as the original Girls FC moves on to secondary school.
Book Features:
With an inclusive message, a diverse cast of characters and little in the way of competition, there's a clear gap in the market for Girls FC.
The first two reissues are publishing in May 2018, in time for the women's FA cup final and during the build-up towards the men's World Cup.
In 2017, 4 million people watched the England women's team play the Netherlands in the Euro and the FA invested £17 million into the sport.
