Each chapter focuses on a different social issue, including drug and alcohol abuse, HIV, poverty, and gang crime, and how the power and popularity of the sport has inspired people to turn their lives around.

Review :
"This book is a testament to the extraordinary power of football to transform people's lives for the better." - The Daily Telegraph --- "What shines through... is the dedication of the charities and individuals to make a difference to young people's lives and the remarkable response to football regardless of place, religion or gender. Far removed from the occasional excess and greed of modern English football this book reminds us that the game can be such a force for good." - Sam Wallace, Chief Football Writer, The Independent --- "So many people in the world are aware of the huge impact that sport, including football, can have on a wide range of social issues. However, there are not that many who truly understand why sport is so effective and more importantly, how it can be used as the perfect tool to encourage positive changes. Eleven is a beautifully written, easy to read book that makes the impact that football can have on the world, real. There is no doubt that the book will inspire people, encourage more investment into the field of Development through Football and help the fabulous charities that are featured keep on doing what they do so well - changing lives using football." - Global Sport Foundation
