BEXLEY RECREATION & PARKS is Gramercy's Community Partner for this program. “A much-needed, hilarious take on life as a soccer parent in today's often too stressful youth sports environment. Surviving Soccer will keep you laughing from cover to cover.” —Skye Eddy, Founder of the Soccer Parenting Association Being a soccer parent isn’t easy. Blankets, battery life, and bottled water are at a constant deficit, while group texts, gossip, and last-minute location changes never cease. The surest means of survival is laughter, and Surviving Soccer: A Chill Parent's Guide to Carpools, Calendars, Coaches, Clubs, and Corner Kicks is the gentle nudge in the ribs that soccer parents need to release the breath they didn't even realize they were holding. This endlessly relatable, and illustrated guide is filled with comic relief for devoted, frenzied, exhausted soccer parents. It delivers a brief respite from the chaos through lists, quizzes, and vignettes including: So You Think That’s Your Schedule: A Game of Chutes and LaddersIs Your Kid Ready for Club Soccer...or the Mob?Road Rules Need Not Apply: Lessons from the Sports Multiplex Parking Lot21 People to Avoid at the GameSurviving Soccer follows a typical youth soccer season, from the high of getting on a team, to the high of leaving the last game knowing you'll never have to sit next to Kaylee's dad again. Over the course of three sections, ten chapters, and more than fifty pseudo-serious charts, diagrams, and text conversations, you'll enjoy snort-laughs big enough to distract you from the cowbell the other team's parents keep ringing. With short, scannable sections and meme-worthy illustrations, Surviving Soccer can be read in the back seat, in the line for the porta-john, or on the sideline while practice runs late (again). Karen Scholl is a seasoned soccer parent. She is also a copywriter and creative director who has created campaigns for top brands including Coca-Cola, Procter & Gamble, Wendy’s, Sirius XM, Trident, Quaker Oats, and Scotts Miracle-Gro. Mike Price is the Director of Bexley Recreation and Parks, which he first joined in 2003. Born and raised in Bexley, he is a graduate of Bexley High School and Otterbein College. He and his wife, Jessica, live in Bexley and have three boys who play soccer. The older two play on the Bexley High School team in the fall and club soccer in the spring. Their youngest is in 4th grade and plays club soccer in the spring and fall.
