Building an Uncommon Champion helps parents guide their athletic
children to learning lifelong principles to be confident, mentally
tough, and capable of developing deeper, more meaningful
relationships.
Parents whose children desire to achieve the highest level in their
sport, particularly hockey, find tools to aid their children in not just
growing as athletes, but as people. Young athletes may have hopes of
being on a college, NHL or Olympic team one day, but not many make it
that far. Utilizing philosophies employed by Navy SEALS to build strong
leaders and teams alongside anecdotes from years of experience in
training and raising athletes, Jennifer Matras lays the groundwork for
athletes to develop into better friends, teammates, and students. More
than a book that focuses on the how-to's of building speed or strength,
Building an Uncommon Champion shares details of Competitive Edge
Skating, Inc.'s program, which is designed to give children an uncommon
advantage with proven techniques to enhance and sustain their abilities
in the arena, weight room, and classroom along with building world class
leadership skills. Parents learn to help their children tap into their
God-given tools to be the best they can be, leaving common for someone
else!
