Score a goal and top the science test by seeing this new Australian family flick.
After hopping on a bus to Harold Soccer Academy instead of Harold Academy Australian Semester at Sea, science fanatic Cory Bailey (Disney star Sofia Wiley) has no choice but to complete a semester at the soccer academy when the boat leaves without her. Unimpressed at being stuck on shore with a bunch of jocks, Cory immediately gets off on the wrong foot with the school’s superstar player Edie (Tiarnie Coupland), who goes out of her way to make life difficult for Cory. With the National Soccer Tournament on the horizon, Cory’s new teammates form a fast friendship and work together to play to their strengths with the help from Coach Smith (Kate Box) to beat Edie’s team in the finals.
This Australian family film directed by Louise Alston (All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane), from the makers of Rip Tide, shows the power of female friendship and believing in yourself, a must-see for young girls and families these Easter school holidays.
