Editorial Reviews

Entertaining, pithy and insightful. Piper has clearly been there and was paying attention along the way. He provides an interesting take on very aspect of youth sport and presents is all with a keen eye and sharp wit.

Amazon - P Odence

A rollicking, wry view on the murky world of youth sports and the loving, loathing parents that inhabit the sidelines. Piper presents a penetrating yet ultimately charitable look at the behind-the-scenes maneuvering required to ensure VICTORY(or at least dignity) at every level from t-ball to the state 4A championships. Essential reading for every would-be coach and for anyone just hoping their kid gets on the right team, has fun, and avoids getting emotionally destroyed along the way.
