Here are just some of the 100% positive reviews on Amazon:-

Antgodfrey:-
"I can't emphasize just how important and powerful this book is and the effect it can have on any coach in any sport. Myself being from a football background, I couldn't help to think as I was ploughing through this book and in my opinion that there has got to be more within coaching qualifications on the relationship building between the coach and athlete, finding out the different ways of peeling the layers back in truly finding who the person is behind the athlete in order for us coaches to nurture, develop and guide in the most effective to meet their needs. The book is refreshing and has many pages that has you constantly thinking about yourself as a coach and how can i do things better going forward and having an even more meaningful relationship with my players. A very well put together book with some extracts that absolutely hit the sweet spot in the pursuit of finding excellence. Sport, business, parenting and good humility skills/lessons.....This book is for you! 5*"

Amazon Customer:-

In the opinion of That's Books, this book will make an excellent Christmas gift for the sports coaches in your life. 

We also feel that this book is a "must buy" for every school and college with a sports department and for every sports club, both amateur and professional.
