Soccer players may get all the glory, but behind every great player
is a great coach. And behind every great coach today stands a deep
fraternity who dedicated decades to supporting soccer's long climb
from obscurity to become one of the major sports in America. It was
an uphill battle, fought persistently and creatively to overcome a
public perception of soccer as "foreign," "aloof," "snobby," or
simply "odd." This is a story of individual and collective action,
of coaches coming together to improve the sport and expand its
reach. From coaching methodologies to standardizing rules,
improving the play on the field and the perceptions beyond it,
persistent coaches were instrumental in creating the game played
and watched today. Relentless tells the landmark and previously
untold stories of resolute coaches, their love of the game, and how
they transformed the sport in the United States.
