When the Jr. High FOOTBALL COACH stumbles onto GRIMLORD'S secret base, SKUGS shrink him and imprison him in a sports trading card. When the team is turned away from their field, the Troopers go to the office of the ""landscaper,"" who turn into Skugs and a fight ensues. Ryan decides to hold practice at the Dojo, where the Troopers, including JEB, help with the training. Grimlord is determined to ambush Ryan, but Ryan defeats CANON FIST, retrieving it's memory cell. Ryan and Kaitlin work with the team while J.B. uses the lab's computers on the memory cell in hopes of finding the coach. He determines a link to the playing field. At the field J.B. battles Skugs and just as Kaitlin arrives, pulls them back to Virtual Reality, where they battle FOOT-BOT. In a parallel fight, Ryan leads the football team. J.B. and Kaitlin destroy Foot-bot, find the trading card and release the coach. They get him back to the game in time to give the team one final play and the victory.
