Bayshore Barracudas: Making the Team

Maya Steele just moved to Bay Shore. She's the only girl who made the Barracudas roster - and the only newcomer, in a gym full of boys who've played together for years and don't plan on making room for her.But making the team was never the real test.Coach Brennan doesn't coach like anyone she's had before. He talks about lines of tension running through the body. About why sitting at a desk for six hours switches off the muscles she needs most. About why the hamstrings are tight for a reason that has nothing to do with the hamstrings. There's a system underneath the game that most players - and most coaches - never learn to see.Every chapter ends with a toolkit page: one diagram of a real system in the body, and one thing the reader can try standing where they are. Not extra reading. The chapter, translated into their own body.Thirteen weeks. One season. Most sports books tell young athletes what to do. This one shows them why - and once they see it, they can't unsee it.
