But soon he is enjoying the new coach and the hockey drills, and even making a new friend. At the end of the camp, Tom invites Harty to his house for more practice. The next day, when he spots a way to improve Harty's slapshot, Tom e-mails him with a suggestion. Five months later, the two boys are surprised to find themselves playing opposite each other in a hockey tournament. Will Harty have learned from Tom's advice?
