Shoot for the Stars

About this book

Whether you’re hoping to become a sporting superstar or just looking to try out something new, this handbook contains all the tips, tricks, interactive quizzes and stories you need to find your confidence through sport. Double paralympic gold medallist Danielle Brown shares important advice about how to feel at home in your body, how to take on feedback, and how to believe in yourself. This book clearly highlights the benefits of sport for all aspects of life and shares the stories of some of the most inspiring athletes throughout history. 

The key focus of this book is finding the sport which suits you and will allow you to have fun and enjoy yourself, not necessarily how to become the best of the best (unless you want to!). A diverse range of sports are introduced and the topics covered can also be applied to many other areas of life for readers who are just starting out on their sporting confidence journey. The stories of 40 amazing sportswomen are expertly woven through alongside facts and advice, and the mix of photos and illustrations nicely break up the text, making this an easy book for readers to dip in and out of.
