When Dr. Harry Styles moves to Wakefield to serve as the physician for "the Gayest Team in the Premier League," heโs harbouring a painful and embarrassing secret. Head Coach Louis Tomlinson is no stranger to personal struggle and embraces Harry with open arms, ready to help him heal, not expecting that Harry will heal him in return. With the support of their mates, they team up to face their pasts and teach each other a thing or two about resilience, forgiveness, triumph, sportsmanship, and the restorative power of love.
