Put Me in Coach

By Brooke Powell

Mia's final basketball season at Brookshire Academy is on the line. In a high-stakes playoff game, she makes a game-winning play, but a brutal collision leaves her with an invisible injury: a concussion. Though she wants to power through for her team, Mia learns that true strength isn't about playing through pain.

Navigating a recovery of quiet rooms, no screens, and no basketball, Mia must find the courage to speak up about symptoms and listen to her healing brain. As her team charges toward the championship without her, Mia is faced with a difficult choice: risk her health for the game she loves, or support her team from the sidelines.

"Put Me In, Coach" is a powerful and insightful story about sportsmanship, resilience, and the importance of putting your health first.
