Ron Fawcett is a natural-born climber. In 1969, while still at school in his native Yorkshire, he tied into a climbing rope for the first time and was instantly hooked. From that moment on, it seemed nothing else in his life mattered nearly as much as his next vertical fix... Fawcett found the pressures of the limelight too much to bear, and at the end of the 1980s he faded from view. Now, for the first time, he tells his extraordinary story, of how his love of nature and the outdoors developed into a passion for climbing that took him to the top - and almost consumed him.

Your athlete does not need a perfect parent. They need a parent who knows when to push, when to listen, and when to step back. Youth sports can test confidence, motivation, discipline, relationships, and judgment—often all at once. The Parent’s Playbook gives you 24 practical plays for the moments sports parents face most: bad games, playing time, coaches, pressure, setbacks, motivation, training, burnout, recruiting, and more. The goal is not to control the journey. It is to help your athlete become more confident, disciplined, resilient, independent, and capable of owning it.

As long as he was happy, they had no problem with their son growing up to be a doctor or a lawyer or a ballplayer. So, with his parents blessing, he prepared to ride his athletic skills as far as possible.

It happens every spring. Yankees pitching great Ron Guidry arrives at the Tampa airport to pick up Hall of Fame catcher and national treasure Yogi Berra. Guidry drives him to the ballpark.
