Twelve-year-old Emmie is working to raise money for a tricked-out
wheelchair to get serious about WCMX (wheelchair motocross), when a
wipeout on a rickety ramp throws her plans into a tailspin. Instead
of replacing the ramp, her school provides her with a kind but
unwelcome aide - and, seeing a golden media opportunity, launches a
public fundraiser for her. Emmie loves her close-knit rural town,
but she can't shake the feeling that her goals suddenly aren't hers
anymore. With the help of her best friends, Emmie makes a plan to
get her dreams off the ground - and show her community what she
wants, what she has to give, and how ready she is to do it on her
own terms.

Kerry-Ann Taylor loves cricket. It's in her blood - in the 1950s
her grandad arrived in England from Jamaica with just two things: a
box of vinyls and his precious cricket bat. Whenever she can,
Kerry-Ann heads to her local ground for matches, practise, and fun
with her best friend Amardeep. But now there's a problem. Some of
the older players - who think they own the place - have found a way
to exploit new club rules to stop Kerry-Ann and her friends from
using the ground. And the rule changes state that next season the
over 13s team will be strictly boys only ... meaning no matches for
Kerry-Ann. But Kerry-Ann is determined to carry on playing cricket
with her friends. So she devises a daring plan to stay in the game
she loves. And unbeknown to her, she's about to get some help via
her grandad's precious cricket bat - which has a lot more to it
than meets the eye ...

Lua Verwey is eintlik allergies vir seuns, maar sy is tog die enigste meisie wat
saam met die krieketspan Kaap toe gaan toer. Mits sy voor die einde van die
kwartaal genoeg name op haar borgvorm het om geld in te samel vir ’n vakansie
langs die strand. En 'n vakansie het sy beslis nodig; want haar ma verwag 'n
tweeling, haar boeties neem die huis op horings, haar oupa-hulle gaan by hulle
kom intrek en haar beste vriendin is skielik superaaklig.
