About

"Pat uncovers new insights into my father's life--his values, his faith, his intensely competitive spirit, and his serving heart."--Nan Wooden

For nearly twenty years, John Wooden ran scores of summer youth basketball camps, imparting wisdom and teaching skills to thousands of boys and girls between the ages of eight and fifteen. Most would not grow up to play professional or even college ball, but all of them found their lives changed by their interaction with the greatest coach who ever lived.

This one-of-a-kind book shares their inspiring stories, highlighting six fundamental lessons from Coach Wooden for a life of success and unforgettable impact on others.


"Another treasure trove of life lessons by the great John Wooden."--Mike D'Antoni, Houston Rockets head coach

"Pat Williams captures not only the greatness but the goodness of John Robert Wooden."--Dick Enberg, sportscaster, winner of multiple Hall of Fame and Emmy awards
