Curtis Plummer ( played by Ice Cube ), hasn't built much of a life. He was a high school football star, who let his talent go to waste. When his sister-in-law, whom Curtis' brother abandoned along with his lttle girl, Jasmine, asks Curtis to spend some time with his niece, Curtis reluctantly agrees. Not knowing how to do much else, Curtis decides to play football with Jasmine. To his amazement, she's good, with a throwing arm that can put the ball where she want it, when she wants it to get there. He takes her to try out for a local Pop Warner football team, the Minden Browns. The team isn't very good and she easily shows she's one of the best players on it. Then, the team needs a new coach and the head coach asks Curtis to take on the role. He agrees. With his leadership, and Jasmine's skill, the Minden Browns go on to win its way to the Pop Warner Super Bowl.
