Book 9 in the acclaimed Rugby Spirit series. Eoin’s back playing rugby, but this time he feels out of his depth. He’s been promoted early to the Senior Cup team – where he’s the youngest ever player – and he’s not sure if he’s ready for it. It’s hard finding his feet among the older boys. A discovery from the earliest days of Irish rugby brings more ghostly encounters for Eoin – and leads him and his friends to tackle a series of crimes at the national stadium. Robberies, rucks and Senior Cup rugby make it a term to remember!
