Nine-year old Robbie Stanley was content to stay inside, playing on his computer and watching TV rather than going outside and interacting with the neighborhood kids.

That is, until one afternoon when he happens across a soccer game while flipping through the TV channels.

Immediately, Robbie is transfixed upon the dragon adorning the Greensboro players & uniforms.  At that defining moment, Robbie decides that he wants to play soccer.

While this may be a rather routine task for any other child, Robbie, who has been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome (AS),finds that playing soccer sets him on
a course on which he has never embarked before.

Although Robbie is excited about his new adventure, his mother is unsure how her son will react in situations to which he is not accustomed.

Of more pressing concern, is how other children will act towards him.

Experience the trials and tribulations of Robbie as he participates in organized sports for the first time.
