From Amazon.com: "Gerry Larkin (12) aspires to be a football star. His only problem: he stinks. His co-ordination is zip; he can't dribble, can't shoot, can't play defense. In short, he can't play. He's the lad that's always chosen last when teams are picked after school. And the team that gets him always considers it a handicap when forced to use Gerry, because Gerry invariably loses the game for them. That said, he does have a couple of friends who have much the same problem: guys and girls who love the sport but simply can't play. Until Lucky Lucy (Beelzebub disguised as a talent scout) visits them. Lucky insists that with just a little of his special coaching, the Hotshots will become the most successful team in history. The cost: a lot of sweat and work, of course. And one more item: the souls of each of the team players. After a little hesitation, and despite protests from Gerry, the team signs Lucky's Temporary Contract. Little do they know that the end result will be an eternity of low-paid coal carrying in a hot little place due south...And so, each team member gains a particular talent. Gerry is chosen as the Striker and is given a leg which has never before been seen in the annals of professional football. His hotfoot is accurate and incredibly powerful--so powerful that it can deflate balls, destroy defenders and rip through even the strongest goal netting with a single WHAP! But on the eve of the World Cup Final--the most famous game in international soccer--the Hotshots have to make a choice: to sign Lucky's Eternal Contract which will sacrifice their souls for all eternity, or to achieve an incredible win which they've all dreamed of so obsessively."
