Foreword
In this book, Martin Rooney is going to try to convince you that coaches have the most important job in the world. And although this sounds like a bold statement, I believe it to be true.
But I'm going to take that idea one step further.
If I were to ask you, “Who is the most important coach in the world?” you might name world leaders, powerful heads of business, or top coaches of sport organizations. You might mention an influential coach you've had in your own life, such as a special teacher or mentor, who has been the greatest help to you.
While I agree all of those people are incredibly important, I have a more personal answer. Now that I've transitioned from being a professional athlete to a coach, I realize the most important coach in the world is the person who coaches our children. And that realization is why I stand so strongly behind the message and mission of this book.
I have known and trained alongside Martin Rooney for 20 years. In many fitness and training circles, he is known as “the man” because of his technical knowledge. But that knowledge was only part of the reason I entrusted him to coach my kids. The other part was because he was able to get them to apply that knowledge through his ability to connect as a coach. During those years he spent coaching my boys, I witnessed the same strategies that Martin features in his book and I know they work.
