Read the excerpt from Outcasts United.

Jeremiah made the team. But when Beatrice Ziaty found out her son was sneaking off to play soccer with strangers after school, she became angry. "You're too small," Beatrice scolded him. "Don't go out of the house!"

Jeremiah started to cry. He begged his mother to let him play, but Beatrice wasn’t going to let anything bad happen to her son. And she certainly wasn't going to be defied—not after all she'd done to get the family here. Inside, though, Beatrice was torn. She knew an eight-year-old boy needed to run. She knew it wasn't fair to keep him confined to a small apartment all the time.

"You say you have a coach," she finally said to Jeremiah. "Why you can't bring the coach to me to see?"

"Momma," he said, "I will bring her."
