Book description
TJ and his friends get a terrible shock when their old teacher, Mr
Potter, returns from illness to take over from Mr Wood as PE teacher
at Parkview School. Worse still, they are about to play in the
semifinal of the Cup, and Mr Potter's really bad tactics nearly lose
them the match.
With everything they've trained for hanging in the balance, can TJ
and his friends turn things around and win?
Theo Walcott was born on 16 March 1989 and grew up near Newbury.
After joining the youth scheme at Southampton, he became the Saints'
youngest ever player, before joining Arsenal in January 2006. Following
his surprise selection in Sven-Göran Eriksson's World Cup squad, Theo
set another record in making his England début at the age of just 17
years and 75 days, and was named the BBC's Young Sports Personality of
the Year in 2006. He is now a star player for both Arsenal and England
and in September 2008 became the youngest player to score a hat-trick
for England. He lives in Hertfordshire with his family and three pet
dogs.
