The Goal I Didn't Mean To Score: The Delaney Adventures

By JG Needham

The Goal I Didn't Mean to Score

Delaney tries her best to blend in on the soccer field. She doesn't want to stand out, she just wants to play.

But when she accidentally scores a goal for the wrong team, the whole field goes quiet. Red-faced and overwhelmed, Delaney wishes she could disappear.

At home, her dad shares a story about his own embarrassing mistake, and Delaney begins to understand something important: everyone makes mistakes. What matters most is what you do next.

A relatable and empowering sports story for kids about resilience, teamwork, and the courage to keep going.

A heartwarming children's soccer story about confidence, resilience, friendship, and finding the bravery to step back onto the field.
