More than Sport!

 Jacob Gough explores the skills and values that sport teaches each and every participant at every level in every sport. He chats with some of Australia’s greatest athletes and those who didn’t make a career of their chosen sport – yet put their skills to good use to ‘make it’ in other areas of life.

Simply a book for all ages and all walks of life – to inspire people to be the best they can be and tap into ones’ true potential and utilise all their skills.
