This is the story of an activist, a fighter for justice, an inspiration to young people and, most of all, one of the best soccer players South Africa has ever produced. He played in many countries around the world. Steve Mokone was born in South Africa during the apartheid era -yet played internationally for top clubs. He was also a son, a brother, an excellent student, a teammate, and a reciepent of several awards. Much has been said about this extraordinary athlete in newspapers, magazines, books and documentaries. This book pulls it all together as a record of his achievements. The story begins when he played barefoot with a tennis ball in townships streets. It ends when he walked away from the lights of the football grounds, leaving behind a great legacy. 'It is my hope,' Louise Mokone says, 'that people will read this book and believe that they too can achieve their goals and not allow others to determine their destiny.'
