Written from the boundary.

Not from the coaches' box. Not from a pathway program. From the place every footy parent stands.

Who wrote it

I'm a dad of two boys.

I wrote From the Boundary because I wanted junior footballers to have something that speaks to who they are as a player, not just another page of drills.

I've spent thirty years in business building performance systems. I'm not a football coach and the books don't pretend otherwise: the training content follows age-appropriate, safety-first principles and is never personalised.

The books follow Harry and Lachie, two brothers at a club that doesn't exist, so the stories can belong to every kid who reads them.

Before launch, the training and mindset content is reviewed by an accredited coach, a strength and conditioning coach and a registered psychologist. See who checks the books.

Our promise about children's details

These books are about young people, so we hold ourselves to the standard we'd want for our own.

Delete my child's details

  • An adult gives us every detail. We don't collect information directly from children.
  • We ask only for a first name or chosen name, age band, position and preference-style answers
  • We never ask for a surname, school, address, photo, or any health, injury or medical information
  • Children's details are never used for marketing, never shared with other group businesses and never used to train AI
  • Details are deleted 90 days after delivery unless you ask us to keep them for a later book, and any time you ask
  • You approve a proof of every Personal and Legacy Edition before it is delivered or printed
  • We never show children's photos, surnames, schools or clubs on this site or in marketing
