Synopsis: Assistant coach of the girl’s basketball team. Sounds like an easy gig for sixteen-year-old Salvador “Slam” Amaro. Show up, run a few drills and pad his resume so he can win a spot on the Ontario Under 17 men’s team. But Slam hasn’t bargained on the girls’ head coach and the star point guard going missing. With the girls facing playoff elimination, Slam has to solve the mystery of their disappearance and take over as head coach of the team while battling some tough competitors for his own place on the Ontario squad.
