"A story about how a young girl discovers a love for football and is set on a path to becoming a star. Standing in her way is a mixture of obstacles including prejudice, opportunities and adversity." LILY GREEN is set on the unlikeliest of paths due to the fact football is relatively non-existent in her current life. The challenges she faces for acceptance are testing and the chances to prove herself take her on a roller-coaster of a journey. With the help of a few close friends, Lily starts to realise her talents, and this gives her the courage and ambition to express herself. The story begins in the summer of 2013 around the sleepy Norfolk seaside and is narrated from the year 2021 when things are very different for women's football. Lily's journey encapsulates the struggles a young female has breaking into the world of football ... can she achieve her goal of fulfilling her talent and becoming a star? *Andy Elleray was born and grew up in London. He moved to the rural town of Worcester to attend university and hasn't looked back since. Growing up, Andy was fascinated with football. Knowing he wanted to do more than play, he studied sports coaching and has since worked with some of the best male and female teams in the UK, as well as international teams. Andy is a best-selling author and has produced nine non-fiction books on the subject of football coaching and youth development through the publishing company Bennion Kearny. Having worked with young footballers for well over a decade, his first fiction book combines the excitement and real-life issues faced in the game.
