Sometimes it takes a whole team to bring down an offside coach. After budget cuts force the Southside Saints football team to disband, Jamal and his friends are crushed. Then the president of a sporting-goods company offers to donate $20,000 worth of equipment to the team. There’s just one catch: he wants to coach. Thrilled to have a real team together, the players turn a blind eye to Coach Fort’s racism, bullying and discrimination. Until he takes it too far. Now it’s up to Jamal and his teammates to take back their team and show what they’re made of.
