“This was the parenting handbook I never received! Found all aspects relevant and motivating and I now have a stronger relationship with my daughter.”

“I enjoyed learning new skills but I also liked that it taught us to have self-esteem.
For me the best part was spending time with my dad because he works a lot and we do not see him lots so it was really nice to be able to have time put aside to spend with him.”

"Put simply, for me it was life changing. Emphasising the importance of sport skills and activity levels in girls and the vital role a Dad plays in that. We will forever be grateful for the many lessons learnt and I will be a better parent as a result. A fantastic program that every father should do.”

“As her father, I'd say that the most extraordinary thing in the program was the empowerment that she got. Not just empowerment through skills and identity, but empowerment she got through a wonderful, new growth in her relationship with me. You could just see and feel it… you were living it!”

“The content of the sessions is brilliant (far beyond what I was expecting) and I particularly liked that it was about building awareness of gender bias and building resilience while also developing a deeper interest in sport. It’s about sharing in the experience as much as it is about developing skills for the sport.”
