Great to see that the discussion around parental behaviour at junior sport is receiving increasing attention. I hope my novel SIDELINES helps to reach parents and contributes to this discussion. #sidelines #juniorsport #sportsparent

In our latest ep Diana Reid has excellent advice on how to handle interviews. Karen and Irma also add their two cents.

Hi Craig Foster
I reckon you’d love my friend Karen Viggers Author’s book…even though she ‘failed’ her elevator pitch 😆 (I’d say bc she’s authentic & it’s not natural to her!)
It speaks about sport and when it brings out our worst instincts…not our best ones.

It's not just in Australia that parents get over the top on the sidelines. My book needs to be published in Ireland!! (and elsewhere).
Clubs have rules about parental behaviour, but often parents don't realise they're doing it . #Sidelines Allen & Unwin
