Reviews 'With chapters such as, “If You’re Going to Play, Sometimes You Get Hit”, “Review the Previous Game’s Outcome Before the Next Game” and “Develop Both Sides of Your Body”, the Robin Cain, Toronto Examinar.com 'What sport can teach us about life is a big topic however that has rarely been dealt with outside the USA.

Or, as an advert for boots proclaimed a few years ago, "Soccer is Life". Expect many more books mining this seam, but Linda Lord is thus far unique in being a soccer mom to break out of the stereotypes, realise the game works profoundly on many levels, and to write a book about it.'
