Game Changers - Stories of...

Zane Ryder

In every era, athletes have pushed the boundaries of what is possible within their sports, but some have gone even further, breaking societal and cultural barriers in ways that extended far beyond the field. These trailblazers were not just pioneers in athletic achievement; they were agents of change who challenged and changed the status quo.
One of the most significant ways athletes have broken barriers is by overcoming racial and gender inequalities. The barriers that existed in sports were often a reflection of the larger societal issues of their time. In the early 20th century, racial segregation in professional sports was common. For African American athletes, simply getting the chance to play was an act of defiance. Jackie Robinson's entry into Major League Baseball in 1947, when he became the first African American to play in the MLB, was a defining moment in the fight against racial discrimination in sports. Robinson’s courage on the field changed the landscape of professional sports and helped to dismantle segregation both in athletics and in society.
Similarly, gender barriers have been a significant challenge for female athletes. For many years, women were excluded from participating in major competitions, and the sports they were allowed to play were often seen as inferior. However, athletes like Billie Jean King, who defeated Bobby Riggs in the infamous "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match in 1973, helped to elevate women's sports and demonstrate that women were just as capable of excelling at the highest levels. King's victory wasn’t just a win in sports—it was a victory for gender equality and a powerful symbol of the struggle for women's rights.

Rise Above - My 500 Days of...

Steve Zakuani

Loss. Defeat. Hardship. Suffering. Pain. They're at the center of the experience of being human. And yet, these experiences can cripple-unless they result in strength. When a sudden accident resulted in multiple fractures to his leg and threatened to take him out of soccer permanently, Steve Zakuani faced his biggest challenge yet. The road to his soccer success hadn't merely involved athletic challenges; in the years leading up to his position with the Seattle Sounders, Zakuani had overcome an upbringing in one of London's roughest neighborhoods, battled personal apathy, and learned to not only walk but run after an accident that left doctors without hope for his future in soccer. He found renewed purpose through the influence of a mentor and, through that mentor, found his purpose in God's call on his life. Yet his early challenges began to look small after Zakuani suffered another injury that broke his leg-and, this time, threatened his career. That injury-and the 500 days of recovery before he returned to the field-forced him to grapple with who he was when his identity in soccer and his personal goals were taken out of his hands. This book, drawn from journals written during his recovery, gives readers a raw, honest look into Zakuanis story-and coach readers how to face tragedy with a positive mindset, how to set goals that are bigger than their adversity, how to remain hopeful in their darkest moments, and how to help others in their life overcome their own adversities. Includes a study guide to aid in personal reflection or group discussion
