Opis

Paul Claridge is an ordinary guy with extraordinary talents: A magnificent, fast, unbelievably dexterous, match-winner who falls for a girl from the opposite side of the divide in the heat of the Northern Irish Troubles. Can he contend with the bigotry and hatred from both communities to become the talisman to lead a no-hope team to victory? Former Tipperary hurling captain, Tony Maguire, is happily married and living in America where he coaches college football. Tony had to retire from hurling due to injury and missed his shot at an All-Ireland Title. Getting a second chance, he drops everything to travel to Ireland to coach the down on their luck County side. Tony has to deal with the pressures of his failing marriage across the Atlantic and the difficulty of getting county players to forget their club rivalries. He whips the team into shape with the help of Skip, his foul mouthed but hard working and well respected assistant coach and some unorthodox team building measures. They qualify for the All-Ireland Final for the first time in over forty years.
