The Boy Who Brought the Golden Cup Home

By Kofi Koomson

Ten-year-old Fiifi Ansa has made his grandfather one extraordinary promise: somehow, he will bring home the Golden Cup that the former national football captain never held.

The promise carries Fiifi from Mumford, a fishing town in Ghana, to the dazzling final of the World Unity Cup. When he discovers a lost ceremonial cup beneath the stadium, the dream suddenly seems within reach. But taking it would betray the lesson Grandpa Stephen taught him: true champions choose honour, especially when nobody is watching.

Fiifi's decision sets in motion a journey of generosity, remembrance and hope-one that will change his family, his village and his own future.

The Boy Who Brought the Golden Cup Home is a richly illustrated story about football, honesty, grief, family and the dreams passed from one generation to the next. Ideal for independent readers, family read-alouds, classrooms and youth football programmes.

For readers ages 7-11.
