[edit] Production

The film is set in Lincoln, Nebraska. The writers are both Lincoln (Neb.) East High School graduates who played on multiple state championship tennis teams under Coach Jeff Hoham.

The character, Jeffrey Vanier, was loosely based on the former Nebraska all-state quarterback, Chris Eubanks, of Lincoln East.

Many scenes in the movie were filmed with actual Texas high schools and actual high school Tennis teams. One of the Taylor, Texas locations is behind the old middle school. The court is usually the location of the community gardens, which had to be removed during filming. The gardens were replaced, only to have some scenes re-shot a few months later. The gardens were removed a second time for the re-shoot. (The gardens are now back in place and growing nicely, according to residents.)

This movie also stars Brando Eaton, Emilee Wallace, Allen Evangelista, Justin Chon, A.D. Miles, and Conor Donovan.
