For the TEENick line-up in 2006, Nickelodeon premiered a new series from Brookwell McNamara Entertainment called '''''Just for Kicks''''' (also originally titled ''Head to Toe'' and then ''The Power Strikers''), centered around a group of girls in a soccer team in New York City who all share the same passion for the sport. Although at least two episodes of the show were apparently on iTunes at some point, it quickly became one of the most short-lived and rare Nickelodeon TV shows ever (even more so than [[KaBlam!: "Just Chillin" (found episode of Nickelodeon animated series; 2000)|''KaBlam!'']]), as barely any trace was left of the show until nearly a decade after its cancellation.
'''''Just For Kicks''''' was a comedy-drama series that aired on Nickelodeon's TEENick block from April 9th, 2006, until August 13th, 2006.
