Full Film Synopsis

South London, present day. Chloe and her fellow team players are seen playing a friendly match against a neighbouring school’s mixed team. The combination of teen girls and boys in their school football team work together to win the season’s league containing all of the local schools. Grassheath High FC are victorious until Coach Johnson breaks the news that he is resigning.

The new coach, Coach Kennedy, decides to steal the boys from the team and form an all-male football team. This is a turning point in Chloe’s friendships with the boys and her female team mates. They argue and fight until they return to their homes battered and bruised. Whilst the newly male football team participates in a tournament, the girls find other things to do. They begin to stay out late every night, despite needing to revise for their upcoming A-level exams, getting drunk and hanging about with strangers whom could be dangerous.

Chloe’s friend Mia is the worst affected by the resignation of their former coach, as she finds a boyfriend who turns out to be emotionally manipulative, causing her to feel extremely low and unable to speak about it to her friends. Due to this, she attempts to take her own life through the mixture of drugs and alcohol.

This is an eye opener to the girls, who immediately stop with their careless behaviour and help to nurse Mia back to full health. They repair their friendships with each other, and begin to do so with their former male team members. At this point, exams are in full swing, and the girls are sure to have failed them, having not even turned up to some.

Summer. The girls meet at school to collect their results. They managed to obtain E to U grades, ensuring that none of them are off to university. Whilst they are disappointed, they were expecting it.

However, Chloe had better plans in the first place. She tells her ideas to her friends, who agree that she is on to something. The girls decide to make a female football team for them and the lower years to participate in, to help them stay out of trouble for good. Despite being unpaid for their hours put into it, the friendship group struggle through their lack of funds to make it happen. The film ends with a new female team led by the ex-students of the school, whom have yet to find jobs, and have been prompted to move out by their parents.
