Grade Five: When Footy Became Everything
When his teacher makes him keep a journal, Zac seizes on the chance to write about Australian rules football every day.
Footy’s everything to Zac. He’s about to play his first season of Under 12s. It’s what he’s always dreamed of.
But as he struggles to make the team, get a kick and deal with a bully, Zac begins to wonder if Under 12s footy will ever be as fun as he’d imagined.
Determined to keep trying, Zac soon discovers that his best skill isn’t taking a huge grab or kicking a goal – it’s being there for his friends when it matters.
Set during the 1991 AFL season, Grade When Footy Became Everything is a funny and heartwarming story of school and sport through the eyes of a footy-mad kid.
