"When I started Classroom Champions, it was because I wanted to have an impact and because I believe in the Olympic ideals. That came from my experiences as an athlete. Duff and I were both immersed in sport at a time and place that I think we'll look back on as being very special. There was and is tremendous value in what we lived and learned. The Tao of Sport encapsulates that time and a value system that elevates everyone involved. It's as much about character and personal growth as it is about high achievement and I loved reading every page."

"I just loved this book. Told from the unique platform of one who has lived sport on all levels-participant, Olympic Champion, coach and parent-Duff's views and perspectives are invaluable and ring true on so many levels. Weaving in personal stories and experiences with lessons learned from teammates, friends and those around him (famous or not), the message and the teachings about values, priorities and defining success in sport are critically important, particularly today. I'm grateful for a book such as this, and truly hope it gets in to the hands of as many athletes, coaches and parents as possible!"

"Duff Gibson looks at sport from many different perspectives. That's what makes The Tao of Sport such a great and educational read whether you are an athlete, a coach, a parent, all (or none) of the above. I've enjoyed this book very much."
