The Kicks

Devin Burke was the star player on her soccer team back home until her family moved to California. Now, Devin has to rise to the challenge after discovering that her new school team has been on a losing streak and is badly in need of a leader to turn things around.

Devin tries out for a high level Club Soccer team and is excited by the coach's positive feedback. Her parents won't let her play for both team so Devin quits The Kicks in favor of the more skilled Club team. When she doesn't make the Club roster, Devin has to get back in the good graces of The Kicks whose feelings she initially hurt.

When The Kicks find out that their coach can no longer coach them due to a family emergency they go on a search for a new coach. If they don't find one in time they won't be allowed to practice and will be forced to forfeit their first game. Upon discovering a suitable candidate, Kentville's head custodian, The Kicks have to convince him to accept the position.

Coach Rivas has made it clear that Zoe is the weak link on the team so Devin takes it upon herself to improve Zoe's goalie skills. Mirabelle, in contrast, recruits a new goalie during her time in detention. Things come to a head at a slumber party when Devin is forced to be a true leader and make the best choice.

The bad condition of The Kicks' field makes Coach Rivas concerned for the safety of his players. After a failed fundraiser, The Kicks challenge the boys to a scrimmage and the winner will get to use the nice field that the boys get to use. After a tough game, the girls prevail but inevitably decide to share the good field with the boys.

Devin is faced with a personal crisis when she loses her soccer headband. She attributes all her bad luck to losing the headband and her teammates must calm her nerves before The Kicks lose too many games. Devin finds new traditions and superstitions with her new team that serve her just as well.

The Kicks uniforms are beginning to fall apart so Coach Rivas plans a trip to an out of town tournament for the chance to earn the team new jerseys. Complications arise when Devin and Mirabelle stay out past curfew and don't make it back to their hotel room in time.

Devin is getting punished for breaking curfew. Her parents take away her cell phone, computer, and TV, which leaves Bailey in charge of getting messages to Devin. Mirabelle's punishment is more severe and The Kicks have to scramble to make sure they don't lose their teammate for good.

Reeling from the news of losing their coach to their rival school, Pinewood Academy, The Kicks engage in a prank war. The pranks escalate forcing Coach Rivas to step in and deal with The Kicks anger.

Devin's ankle is badly hurt, but she believes that if she can keep it a secret from the team and Coach Rivas they will allow her to play in the biggest game of the year against Pinewood Academy. To protect Devin, the team tells Coach Rivas about the injury who decides to bench Devin for the game.
