Publisher Description: Whoever said girls can't play cricket never met Alice Henderson. All-rounder Alice Henderson finds herself in the spotlight when she attracts the attention of an elite scout for an all-girls cricket camp. Hungry for a chance to shine and realise her dreams of playing on a competitive cricket team, Alice relishes the opportunity to attend camp and make a name for herself. However, not all is fair in war and cricket, and Alice struggles to find her footing amongst many other talented players, who all share the same hope of being selected. Alice finds herself at the crossroads of her athletic identity: torn between her lofty ambitions and her friendships with her team mates. In Alice Henderson -- On Debut, one young athlete must decide between ambition and loyalty and learn the important role character plays on the pitch. Will Alice swing for the boundary and realise her dreams, or will she take aim for something much bigger than fame? |
