'Daniel and Sione have been given the chance of a lifetime to be coached by Australian rugby union star, Israel Folau. But can they make it count?

'While Daniel and Sione come from very different backgrounds, they both eat, sleep and breathe rugby union. When they are selected for a junior representative rugby team, Daniel and Sione's worlds collide. At first, the boys are awestruck by Izzy, but soon they see him as a friend. Unfortunately, things on the field don't go as smoothly.

'Will Daniel and Sione learn how to adapt to their new team? Or will their big break turn into a missed opportunity?' (Publication summary)
