Subject
The twin sisters Sam and Emma are elected to different soccer teams. While Sam is very athletic, “girl things” are more important to Emma. Sports and victory are more important than anything to your father, which is why he spends most of his time with Sam. But since she is not in her father's team, he has nothing against the two girls secretly switching teams. Before a decisive final, the father now has to decide whether to let Sam or Emma play in the team he oversees.
introduction
Jerry Stanton, like his daughter Samantha, is into sports. That's how he spends most of the time with her. With Samantha's twin sister Emma, on the other hand, he can't do anything. She is more interested in "girl things". So it's Sam again, with whom he wins several competitions at a family sports festival. Because winning is the most important thing for Jerry. The mother, on the other hand, wants the father of the twins to spend time with Emma.
Bulk
When the new football season is approaching, there is a new regulation. Girls must also be included in every junior team. So the mother persuades Emma to take part, while Sam is enthusiastic about playing soccer anyway. Jerry coaches one of the junior soccer teams. So the mother persuades her husband to choose Emma first in the team line-up so that she no longer feels set back by her father.
After Jerry has done this, he hopes to be able to vote for Sam in the next round because he knows how good she is at sports. But Sam is chosen by another team. Both twins are now playing in different teams.
Since victory is the most important thing for Jerry, he trains his team very hard, and they are also very good in the standings, while the coach in Sam's team focuses on having fun. Emma cannot cope with the pressure that is placed on her, and Sam is also dissatisfied, as she has always wanted to win from her father.
So the twins finally decide to switch roles. And Sam joins Jerry's team while Emma joins the other team. This goes well for quite a while until her mother discovers this swap.
Enough
After a discussion between her and Jerry, Jerry does not want to know anything about a renewed exchange of the girls in the right team. Only at an important final does he realize that winning is not everything and so he lets Emma play in his team again. So everyone has fun playing football for the first time, and Emma and her father get closer and at the end they get to know a boy.
