Title: Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall Author: Lindsey Jacobellis Narrator: Abby Craden Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 1 minute Release date: October 17, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: In this deeply personal memoir in the vein of Andre Agassi's Open and Megan Rapinoe’s One Life, the winningest snowboardcross rider of all time chronicles her career, a story of self-growth that reveals the secret of her resilience and how she overcame crushing early failure to win Olympic gold. On February 16, 2006, twenty-year old American snowboarder Lindsey Jacobellis was poised to win the first gold medal in women’s snowboardcross, a sport making its Olympic debut. With a seemingly insurmountable lead over the other competitors, Lindsey only needed a clean run for the gold medal to be hers. But as the five-time world champion entered the last 100 meters the unthinkable happened: choosing to add a little flair to the run, she grabbed the back edge of her board—then lost her balance and fell. It was a mistake that would go down as one of the biggest “unforced errors” in all of sports history.  For the next sixteen years, Jacobellis endured the criticism and second-guessing of Olympic commentators, sportswriters, and detractors. Day after day she persevered and trained harder on the snow and with her life coach, learning the power of resilience and what the sport really meant to her. The fierce competitor discovered that life, though it may not seem like it, does happen in just the right way: you end up precisely where you were meant to be. At the 2022 Beijing Winter Games, Lindsey twice reached the top of the podium, becoming a two-time Olympic gold medalist.   Unforgiving recounts Lindsey’s journey from disappointment to triumph. It is an honest account of one life-altering misstep and its aftermath, and a reflection on what it means to come of age as an athlete in the spotlight, the weight of expectations, falling short, and ultimately fulfilling your dreams. Unforgiving is about the purpose-driven, forward-looking attitude Lindsey took on after her fall, when looking back wouldn’t have done anyone any favors. It’s about the pass she refused to grant herself until she’d earned it. Unforgiving is about the commitment to seek her own truth—and to speak up on one’s own behalf after letting others do it for years.   Forgiveness, in the end, is at the heart of Lindsey’s story, but underneath and alongside is its polar opposite—an unending, uncompromising determination to push herself, to prove herself, to power past every obstacle in her path, even those of her own making.

Title: Unraveled: A Climber's Journey Through Darkness and Back Author: Katie Brown Narrator: Sarah Zimmerman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 29 minutes Release date: April 18, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: As a teenager in the 1990s, Katie Brown was one of climbing's first 'comp kids'—a young natural who, along with her peers, redefined the image of a strong and successful climber. After climbing for less than two years, Brown won her first junior national title. The next year she became the Junior World Champion at age fourteen in Laval, France. In 1996 she won both the Rock Master—a prestigious international contest in Arco, Italy—and the esteemed X-Games. From 1996 on, Brown won every US Adult National that she entered, as well as a World Cup Title in France in 1999. Yet even as she reigned on the podium, Brown felt her life begin to unravel. A quiet child, she struggled with a home life that was very different behind closed doors than it seemed on television. A fundamentalist version of Christianity was at the center of the household, and Brown fought to live according to rules that were strict, ever-changing, and irrational. Isolated and feeling hopeless, Brown latched onto food as something she could control. She quit competitive climbing and bounced in and out of the industry, eventually disappearing in her late twenties. Now, more than two decades later, Brown is ready to share her story. Unraveled answers the question thousands of fans worldwide have wondered: 'What ever happened to Katie Brown?'

Title: On the Water: A Fishing Memoir Author: Guy De La Valdene Narrator: Jay Myers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 3 minutes Release date: March 28, 2023 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: On the Water is a gorgeously written collection of essays that all take place on or near the water and pay tribute to the flora and fauna associated with those ecosystems. There are essays about the finer points of tickling rainbow trout in the streams of Normandy, and of eagles and ospreys fishing for bass while barely breaking the surface of the water. There are stories of droughts and floods, of dogs and boats, of worms and rattlesnakes, and even of catching and cooking soft-shell turtles that taste like osso-bucco. There is fishing and diving in the Bahamas, tarpon fishing in the Florida Keys, and fly fishing for sailfish in Central America. And there are larger-than-life personalities that are bigger than the fish tales they tell! On the Water is a finely honed and well crafted collection of tales for the true sportsman and makes for a perfect companion volume to la Valdene's celebrated collection of essays on hunting.

Title: The Umpire Is Out: Calling the Game and Living My True Self Author: Rob Neyer, Dale Scott Narrator: Dale Scott Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 16 minutes Release date: February 28, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Dale Scott's career as a professional baseball umpire spanned nearly forty years, including thirty-three in the Major Leagues, from 1985 to 2017. He worked exactly a thousand games behind the plate, calling balls and strikes at the pinnacle of his profession, working in every Major League Baseball stadium, and interacting with dozens of other top-flight umpires, colorful managers, and hundreds of players. What makes Scott's book truly different is his unique perspective as the only umpire in the history of professional baseball to come out as gay during his career. Granted, that was after decades of remaining in the closet, and Scott writes vividly and movingly about having to 'play the game': maintaining a façade of straightness while privately becoming his true self and building a lasting relationship with his future husband. He navigated this obstacle course at a time when his MLB career was just taking off—and when North America was consumed by the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Scott's story is also a baseball story, filled with insights and memorable anecdotes that come so naturally from someone who spent decades among the world's greatest baseball players, managers, and games. Scott's story is fascinating both for his umpiring career and for his being a pioneer for LGBTQ people within baseball and across sports.

Roddy Collins is a football man - now in the sixth decade of a career as a player (at sixteen clubs), manager (twelve clubs) and commentator. And he is a funny man: an unequalled raconteur with a sharp eye for the absurdities of the professional game and spectacular recall. He has made friends wherever he has gone, along with some high-quality enemies. When John Delaney said he could get Roddy a job if he'd just stop criticising him, Roddy replied that he'd 'rather dig holes in the road'. Now, with the brilliant Paul Howard, Roddy puts it all down on paper for the first time - the adventures, the rows and the craic - in what will be not only one of the funniest but one of the most eye-opening books ever written about professional football. © Roddy Collins & Paul Howard 2022 (P) Penguin Audio 2022

Title: A Very Tall Story Author: Martin Bayfield Narrator: Martin Bayfield Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 52 minutes Release date: September 15, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: A hilarious and, at times, moving and soul-searching account of rugby union’s rollercoaster days in the 1990s, told through the eyes of a player who saw it all as the sport lurched shambolically from the crazy final days of amateurism into the professional era. Martin Bayfield has a story to tell. Indeed, some might describe it as a very tall story. Standing at 6ft 10ins, the former England and British and Irish Lions second row remains one of the tallest players ever to have played international rugby, and his immense physical stature made him one of the most destructive forwards in the world game. He played for England during one of the most successful eras in English rugby, winning two Grand Slams alongside legendary players such as Will Carling, Jeremy Guscott, Brian Moore and Rory Underwood.  His international heyday came at a seminal moment for rugby union when, almost overnight, it was transformed from a noble minority sport to a celebrity event, with stories appearing on the front pages of the British tabloids. Now Bayfield is ready to reveal the inside story of that rip-roaring decade that changed forever the face of English rugby. The book provides an emotional link between the generations, so that today’s fans can reconnect with rugby's soul. Renowned as one of rugby's best and most entertaining storytellers, the former policeman and Hagrid's body double has written a brilliant and very funny love letter to a sport that continues to inspire and entertain millions.

Title: Making Decisions: Putting the Human Back in the Machine Author: Ed Smith Narrator: David Thorpe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 10 minutes Release date: September 15, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Winning takes many forms. For fans of Matthew Syed, this is a great sports book about leadership, judgement and decision-making – rooted in the theory that helped Ed Smith lead England cricket to sustained success. And to help us all win more. ‘An absolutely fascinating book’ THE GAME, The Times football pod - How do you spot the opportunities that others miss? - How do you turn a team’s performance around? - How do you make good decisions amid a tidal wave of information? And how can you improve? As chief selector for the England cricket team, Ed Smith pioneered new methods for building successful teams and watched his decisions tested in real time on the pitch. During his three-year tenure, England averaged 7 wins in every 10 completed matches, better than they have performed before or since. Making Decisions reveals Smith’s unique approach to finding success in a fast-changing and increasingly data-reliant world. The best decisions, Smith argues, rely on a combination of differing kinds of intelligence: from algorithms to intuition. This is a truth that the most successful people know: data cannot account for everything, it must be harnessed with human insight. Whatever the power of data, humans aren’t finished yet. Sharing for the first time the tools he introduced as England selector, Smith’s book captures the immediacy of life at the sharp end, while also exploring frameworks from the top levels of sports, business and the arts. Decision-making is revealed as a creative enterprise, not a reductive system. Making Decisions offers an invaluable guide for those who want a better framework for developing, explaining and implementing new ideas.

Title: Playing Through the Pain: Ken Caminiti and the Steroids Confession That Changed Baseball Forever Author: Dan Good Narrator: Tom Parks Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 25 minutes Release date: May 31, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: In Playing Through the Pain, writer Dan Good seeks to make sense of MLB MVP Ken Caminiti's fascinating, troubled life. Good began researching Caminiti in 2012 and conducted his first interviews for his biography in 2013. Since then he's interviewed nearly 400 people, providing him with an exclusive and exhaustive view into Caminiti's addictions, use of steroids, baseball successes, and inner turmoil. Decades later, the full truth about Major League Baseball's steroids era remains elusive, and the story of Caminiti, the player who opened the lid on performance-enhancing drugs in baseball, has never been properly told. Caminiti voluntarily admitted in a 2002 Sports Illustrated cover story that he used steroids during his career, including his 1996 MVP season, and guessed that half of the players were using performance-enhancing drugs. Good's on-the-record sources include Caminiti's steroids supplier, who has never come forward; people who attended rehab with Caminiti and revealed the secret inner trauma that fueled his addictions; hundreds of Caminiti's baseball teammates and coaches; childhood friends who were drawn to his daring personality, warmth, and athleticism; and the teenager at the center of Caminiti's October 2004 trip to New York City during which he overdosed and died.

El cielo con las manos: Edición ampliada y actualizada Author: Daniel Frescó Narrator: Ignacio Gagliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 11 minutes Release date: May 13, 2022 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: Relato apasionante y exhaustivo, pleno de anécdotas que revela aspectos desconocidos de Ginóbili: la vocación casi genética por el básquet, la obsesión por crecer y la audacia por alcanzar un destino para el que se sabía predestinado. La fuerza de voluntad, la decisión inconmovible de triunfar, el talento, la inteligencia y una rara habilidad para llegar al lugar indicado en el momento justo confluyeron para dar forma al destino singular de Emanuel Ginóbili, el más grande jugador de básquet de la Argentina de todos los tiempos y uno de los mejores del mundo. El escritor y periodista Daniel Frescó reconstruye esa vida única mediante una minuciosa investigación que incluye testimonios de familiares, amigos y compañeros, desde la llegada de su bisabuelo a Bahía Blanca, la integración y desarrollo de su familia en la ciudad, y su infancia hasta la consagración en el básquet mundial con la obtención de la medalla de oro en los Juegos Olímpicos de Grecia y cuatro anillos de la NBA. El resultado de esta investigación demuestra que la forja de una personalidad como la de Manu no es producto del azar o la buena fortuna sino de la tenacidad individual, de sus orígenes, de un entorno, de un momento y hasta de un país. Su ascenso es el paradigma del argentino que conquista el mundo pero detrás de la imagen pública se esconde una persona humilde, fiel a sus afectos y dispuesto a superar todos los contratiempos a fuerza de inteligencia y constancia. Este relato apasionante y exhaustivo, pleno de anécdotas, revela aspectos desconocidos de Ginóbili: la vocación casi genética por el básquet, la obsesión por crecer y la audacia para alcanzar un objetivo para el cual, de algún modo, se sabía predestinado. Manu. El cielo con las manos, el primer y más completo audiolibro sobre Emanuel Ginóbili, entrega el retrato preciso de una vida y de una carrera cuyos éxitos trascienden los límites del deporte. A trece años de su publicación y cuando Manu transita el retiro de la actividad, se impone una edición definitiva no simplemente para explicar su trayectoria o sus triunfos sino para realizar una proyección de un legado, que ya es tan o más impactante que sus logros, e imaginar el devenir de su futuro. Grandes estrellas y leyendas de la NBA; entrenadores de altísimo nivel; compañeros y excompañeros de los Spurs y la Selección Argentina; los jóvenes basquetbolistas que toman su bandera; atletas que compartieron con él Juegos Olímpicos; referentes nacionales e internacionales de otros deportes y actividades terminan de redondear con valiosísimos conceptos la trascendencia de su figura. Todo ello para completar un audiolibro que abarca generaciones, atraviesa los siglos XX y XXI, y muestra al Manu íntegro que delinea un inmenso legado que perdurará por siempre. «Es un campeón, un gran competidor y uno de los mejores Spurs. Fue muy divertido jugar contra él todos estos años.» LeBron James «Manu será recordado por siempre.» Lionel Messi «Conservó ese fuego interno y ese deseo interior de seguir ganando.» Roger Federer «Su carrera nos dice a todos que se puede.» Jorge Valdano «Es un campeón. Soy fan de Manu. Quisiera saber dónde está esa fuente de la juventud.» Stephen Curry

Title: [Arabic] - غزلان وسحرة: نافذة على كرة إفريقيا Author: عمرو نجيب فهمي Narrator: هاني رعد Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 17 minutes Release date: July 28, 2020 Genres: Sports Publisher's Summary: بعد إشارة بسيطة إلى تاريخ نشأة اللعبة في القارة السمراء، بَرَع المؤلف حين قرر تقسيم القارة إلى خمسة أقاليم كبرى: شمال وجنوب وشرق وغرب ووسط، ثم شرع في رسم شخصية دقيقة لكلٍ من هذه الأقاليم. وتلك الشخصية الكروية لكل إقليم تستند إلى مجموعة من العوامل المتشابكة، فلا يمكن على سبيل المثال فصل تفوق الشمال كرويًا، عن حصول أبنائه على الاستقلال في فترات مبكرة قياسًا بدول أخرى داخل القارة، أو عن قربه الجغرافي من أوروبا وسهولة التواصل معها ملاحيًا عبر البحر المتوسط 'ما جعل من السهل انتقال الخبرة العلمية للكوادر الإدارية والفنية إلى دول الشمال الأفريقي'. لا خلاف أن 'اللاعب هو الفاعل الأول في منظومة كرة القدم أينما كانت'، واللاعب الأفريقي المعروف بـ'القوة والسرعة والمهارة' متهم أيضًا بالعشوائية والارتجال، لذلك وصفه الكاتب بـ'الغزال' فهو سريع وماهر وقوي، لكنّه 'كثيرًا ما يشرد دون أن يفكر في تبعات ذلك على فريقه'. تحدث عن السحر الذي اشتهرت به القارة السمراء. وسرد أبرز وأشهر القصص التي تتحدث عن سحرة ومشعوذين استعانت بهم المنتخبات والفرق السمراء، عن سوء الإدارة الكروية في أغلب دول القارة، ونبّه إلى أحد أبرز تجليات سوء الإدارة حين سقطت طائرة المنتخب الزامبي قبالة سواحل الجابون في أبريل/ نيسان 1993، وتشير التفاصيل إلى أن طائرة المنتخب الزامبي عانت من العديد من الأعطال قبل هذه الرحلة، وأن اللاعبين تذمروا لكنّ لم يهتم المسؤولون، ما أدى إلى مقتل 25 لاعبًا كانوا يمثلون جيلًا ذهبيًا للكرة الزامبي.
