Tackling Dad

Cassie played Peewee football when she was young, but in junior high, she is content to run track, finding the events that work best for her. That is, until her neighbor and family friend encourages her to try out for the junior high boys' football team. Convincing her mom and dad that she can play football with the boys is more difficult than she thought it would be -- Cassie wonders how she has managed to find the one topic that will unite her divorced parents.

Tackling Dad is the story of 13-year-old Cassie's struggle to make her father understand that even though she's a girl, she can still play football -- just as he did.
