Sean Faris (“Reunion”, “Life as We Know It”) stars as Rick Penning, a talented-but-troubled rugby player who must play against the team his stern father (Neal McDonough) coaches at the national championship.
Based on actual events connected to the dominant Highland Rugby program, Rick’s road to turning his life around begins at the juvenile detention center he has been sent to. It is there that a counselor (Sean Astin – “Rudy”) gets the confused teen heading in a new direction. When well-respected coach Larry Gelwix (Gary Cole) recruits Rick for his storied rugby squad, training for sports success takes on a deeper meaning.
