A 15-year-old soccer sensation who's well on her way to joining the U.S. National Team discovers that there is more to life than scoring the next big goal in this sports-themed comedy for the whole family. Ever since Sara Davis (Leah Pipes) was a young girl, her soccer fanatic father has pushed her to do her very best on the field. When word gets out that the National Development Team has found out about Sara and is sending a scout to witness her incredible talent firsthand, it appears that if all of her rigorous training has finally paid off. But Sara's best friend, Tutti, thinks her athletic pal needs to get off of the field and into the real world for a change. It's a whole new ballgame when you're not leading your team to victory in the big game, though, and now, as Sara begins to branch out and experience everything from the wonders of chemistry to the stress of prom night, each new day brings a whole new surprise for the girl whose previous short-sightedness had prevented her from seeing beyond the bleachers.
