Football often compared to Cricket was Jess's father's favorite sport until he tried to play with the English. The English started racist comments to him and were making fun of his turban.

Her dad read the newspaper and that she was playing in the tournament. This lead them to not trust her and made her quit playing football. .
Her team made it to the playoffs, but her parents put her sisters wedding date on the day of the playoffs and on the day that the scouts were finally going to be there to watch her play. When the wedding came they still would not let her go to the game, until half way through when her dad said "in that is the only thing that is going to make you happy on your sisters wedding day then go play.
