Congratulations to Ted Kroeten!

We’re excited to share that 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙚𝙛: 𝙐𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙤𝙖𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙪𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙈𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙘𝙝 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙚𝙘𝙩 𝙂𝙖𝙢𝙚 is now listed as the #1 bestseller in Soccer Coaching for both Kindle and paperback.

Ted’s book challenges the way we think about youth sports, player development, creativity, free play, and what it really means to help young athletes grow. Drawing from decades of coaching and his work with Joy of the People, 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙚𝙛 makes a powerful case for giving the game back to kids.

Congratulations, Ted — and thank you to everyone who has supported the book!
