Characters

* Jared "Coop" Cooper (Jacob Kraemer): Coop, 15, is a cool, fun, articulate charmer who never thought he'd voluntarily participate in any extracurricular activities that didn't involve his favourite pursuits: playing drums, sports and girls.

Through the series it is noticed Coop has a crush on Kaeleigh, but he decides not tell her his true feelings when she rejects Ronald and swears off boys.

Rusty takes great pride in his court but once court is out of session he's just another awkward teenager in the hall. He is also known to be loyal, a popular quality for Scottish people.
* Tara Bohun (
