For the game scene, actual soccer teams were cast and used their real uniforms. The teams even brought along their parents to cheer in the stands.
The song playing at the start is "Creedence Clearwater Revival - Bad Moon Rising"
While Rob Kazinsky was the heart throb on set, it was actually Nickelodeon star Ciaro Bravo who left the girls on the soccer team star struck during the game scene.
Between takes during the soccer scene, Rob Kazinsky could not resist engaging the girls on set in some real ball handling on the field. The crew from wardrobe pleaded from the sidelines for him to not get muddy.
