Harry Archer has always been a great football player. But with his widowed mother's illness he must get a job after school to support his family. Will he get a chance to play this season?
Meanwhile, the rest of the football team must cope with habitual liar and ladies' boy Willie Hardy and stuck-up Ernest Snowden while preparing to compete with a rival school.
