Voice:…There’s nothing else we can do.

Narrator: …he was left paralyzed. And the

accident took more than his legs.

Conflict: He cannot handle his paralysis.

He sinks into a depression and

loses touch with loved ones.

ClimaxNarrator: Miguel’s brother Don takes him to Spirit Park, where his love for the game really began.

Don: Today you get your life together. These kids need a coach. You’re gonna act like a grown man and do the job.

The scene between Miguel and his brother is intense. Miguel, at first, resents Don for bringing him back here; but Don can no longer watch his brother waste his life and love for the game. Miguel watches for a bit. After the kids recognize him, they surround him sharing with him how excited they are that he is their new coach. He cannot say no.

Narrator: Miguel learned how to be the hero he always wanted to be…with the help of some amazing ball players.
