In the book Fantasy League by Mike Lupica, there is a 12 year old boy named Charlie who is an expert at football. In his area NFL football hasn't been around for 20 years until the recent return of the team. The L.A. Bulldogs, the one and only team L.A. has and they're horrible. Charlie then takes over the team as he is best friends with the owners granddaughter and is just what the team needs. The team then get's back onto track and getting into the hang of things. The team then goes onto press conferences, fame and stardom as the team gets better. Charlie becomes a national star and a lot of curiosity goes around him and how he got so good at the game at the age of 12.
In this book I had seen a conflict starting early in the book. Charlie had been obsessed with Football and he hadn't had a team in his area since 20 years ago. But recently they had gotten a new team, but the team isn't good. Charlie had been proud of football and he wanted to have a good team, but the elder who was the owner wasn't that great at the game anymore and he needed to get some new thinking and ideas. Charlie then senses that they need a new leader and he takes on the spot of owner and pretty much the general manager and he gets the team far and does well.
