Publisher's Synopsis

If you're the kind of fan who cheers every single time you watch Rocky beat Drago, or remembers who said "If you build it, he will come," or has ever wished you were in the stands at the ADAA Dodgeball Finals when Peter LaFleur took out White Goodman, then Movies with Balls is the book for you. Movies with Balls celebrates and analyzes more than two dozen of the greatest sports films of all time. You'll be transported into fictional arenas, stadiums, gyms, fields, and golf courses to relive the climactic moments from: The Natural Field of Dreams Teen Wolf The Karate Kid She's the Man The Waterboy Bend It like Beckham Creed And many more! Illustrated with fictional ticket stubs, trading cards, play maps, and more, Movies with Balls brings to life the iconic films and characters that we love and admire-just as much as we love our real-world sports and athletic heroes-letting us cheer them on, again and again.
