Abstract
Fourteen year-old Summer Widden has just received the best Christmas present of her life - Coach Nola named her captain of the basketball team. Several girls on her team are furiously jealous. But Coach says Summer's got the skills and the leadership qualities to take the team all the way to the provincial championship. Then Coach Nola dies in a plane crash, and everything changes. The new coach is a jerk who plays favourites, the team is falling apart, and, to get revenge on Summer, the popular girls lump her in with the team loser. Summer starts seeing Coach Nola's ghost whenever she's on the court. Is Coach trying to tell her something?
