Game Day: Meet the People Who Make it Happen by Kevin Sylvester

From chapters.ca:
Not everyone can be an athlete, but that doesn't stop thousands of others from participating in world- class sporting events. When Patrick Reynolds realized that he couldn't be a race car driver, he turned his love of cars into a successful career as a NASCAR mechanic. A passion for grass and baseball led Nicole Sherry to become the groundskeeper at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland. Author Kevin Sylvester tells the stories of 19 talented and dedicated behind- the- scenes stars of the sports world. In this new book, the glamour of the frontline athletes takes a backseat to the hardworking people whose jobs are critical to the success of their sport but often go unacknowledged.
