Book Summary
The District Cup is a high-energy coming-of-age soccer tale about the U-13 Maulsari Eagles, a team of talented kids chasing a dream against daunting odds. Aimed at middle-grade readers and anyone who loves sports stories, it blends excitement, heart, and resilience into a journey that feels both thrilling and personal.
The District Cup is told through the eyes of young players and their coach, weaving Prithvi, Kadambini, and Siraj into a single heartbeat. Prithvi, a skilled midfielder, grapples with his father's resistance; Kadambini, a determined winger, fights against gender bias; and Siraj embodies the stubborn, hopeful leadership that believes change is possible even when the system is stacked against them. As the season unfolds toward the District Cup, the Eagles confront obstacles that test loyalty, courage, and pride—showing that talent alone isn’t enough without heart and teamwork. The pace mirrors a real season, mixing training, trials, and hard-won victories with moments of doubt, all built to thrill and inspire.
After finishing The District Cup, readers will carry a belief in the power of perseverance, fair play, and standing up for what’s right. They’ll feel inspired to chase their own dreams with heart, empathy, and pride, knowing that true glory comes from teamwork as much as talent.
