From the jacket flap

Josh and his travel league soccer teammates are playing together for the first time sometimes in new positions they're not used to. They're having trouble coming together as a successful team. In fact, they can't seem to win a single game. Discouraged, Josh is almost ready to go back to his old team.

But then he hears how the struggling 1999 United States Women's World Cup team built a winning team by using team-building exercises. Would an approach like that help the United become champions?
