Just play ball

Norwegian title: Bare spille ball

Fredrik is facing the most important game in his life. As long as he rages the side-lines of the field, like he usually does, the dream of becoming a professional soccer player is within reach. But things that take place in the days before the final changes everything.Just play ball is a book about loving the game of football, but not being prepared for the hard realities. It is about trying to forget about a girl, and getting on without a father. And it is about winning – without loosing yourself. Winner of Trollkrittet and Uprisen 2018
