Offside

Remo De Luca was once a name everyone in South African rugby, believed to be the greatest player of his generation.

Then, suddenly, he wasn't.

After disappearing from the field and the public eye for over a year, Remo returns to school determined to keep his head down and survive his final years unnoticed. But returning to normal life is harder than he expected-especially when everyone still seems to remember the boy he used to be.

Diago Steyn has everything under control. Captain of the rugby team, respected by teachers, admired by half the school-his life looks perfectly balanced from the outside. But behind the confidence and easy charm is a boy who learned long ago how to carry more than anyone should.

Christopher Hayes is new. Fresh from Australia with a stable home, a good life, and a spot on the rugby field waiting for him, he doesn't quite understand why he feels out of place in a world that seems determined to welcome him.

Three boys.

Three completely different lives.

One school where everyone is watching... even when they pretend, they aren't.

As their worlds slowly begin to overlap-in classrooms, on the rugby field, and in quiet moments between the chaos of teenage life-they'll discover that some connections are impossible to ignore.
