The story is intertwined with that of her older sister, Pinky, who is engaged to be married to an Indian boy and whose relationship is directly affected by Jess’ s behaviour. The story continues as Jess’s football team travels to Germany for a game and reaches the finals. Jess isn’t comfortable doing this but her love for playing football overrides this and her friends encourage her to go against her parents' wishes and break the rules. This requires lying to her parents about what she is doing-she pretends she has a part time job, and sneaks out when they are not around. The coach, Joe, takes a liking to Jess and, impressed by her obvious skills, gives Jess a position in the team. Jules encourages her to try out for the team. She is very good at the game and is noticed by a girl, Jules, who is a member of the local girls’ football team, the Hounslow Harriers. Jess’s parents forbid her to play the game but she disobeys them and continues to play anyway. However, her parents have very traditional Indian beliefs and a girl playing football is not part of them. Her idol is Beckham and she dreams of playing with him and kicking the winning goal. “No-one can bend a ball like Beckham” is the catch phrase of Jess (Jessminder) an Indian teenager brought up in England who loves playing football with her mates. material that may scare or disturb children.
