Tekkers

Zak spends most of his time on the pitch for Redwood Rangers, the local football side, or at home making freestyle clips with his dad. One of those clips takes off online, and his days quickly fill with attention. Fans, a famous Barcelona name, and big sportswear companies all come calling, and his face turns up across sports broadcasts.

The fame brings pressure, and Zak starts to see that being known online has its downsides. The story is light and funny, and it explores how social media can reshape a young person's life, with a clear lesson that real friendships matter more than a large number of followers.

This is the first instalment in a planned trilogy that follows Zak through his football career and his rise as a YouTube personality.
