Golden Flag: A small-town flag football season. A big-time personal victory. - Hardcover

by Jeff Wingard (Author)

Fourteen-year-old Bryce Rowan never asked for a fresh start. Moving to Georgetown, Virginia means a new school, no friends, and a Geometry textbook that feels like it's written in code. Diagnosed with ADHD and pushed into a flag football league he doesn't even want to join, Bryce is convinced he's set up to fail-just in a different zip code.

Across town, advertising burnout Marty Hooperbottom fumbles into coaching his son's team, hoping that bluffing his way through will be good enough. Neither Bryce nor Marty expect much from flag football-but when their paths collide, chaos and comedy follow.

As losses mount and tempers flare, Bryce, Marty, and their ragtag teams learn that victory isn't just about touchdowns or trophies. It's about courage, resilience, and seizing the moment when you pull the golden flag-and prove you belong.

Funny, heartfelt, and deeply relatable, Golden Flag is a story of second chances, unlikely friendships, and what it really means to win.
