A group of Pee-Wee football kids get rejected from the town's top team for a variety of reasons, and they manage to convince one of their dads — the top team's coach's brother — to start a new team just for them. The rivalry between the teams is mirrored by the brothers' rivalry, turning it into a two-tiered underdog story. It's similar to other kid-sports flicks of the same era, but it's a cute nostalgic watch all the same.
