Down By Six - Paperback
by Chris Martino (Author), Joe Martino (Author)
Father and son, American transplants to Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, set out to coach football together.
With hand-me-down gear, no facilities, no money, no training equipment, and no youth steeped in football traditions, they unleashed their hard-nosed, no-excuses brand of football. Their small, unsuspecting, working-class town was on the map in two short years as its Parksville Posse community league team captured the British Columbia provincial (state) championship crown.
Marshaling a posse of supporters and bringing a third American transplant on board, they took their brand of football to the local high school. In just their second season, the Ballenas Whalers finished as runners-up in the championship game and in their third season as AA high school provincial (state) champions!
Down By Six is their story. Starting with little more than a desire to spend time together, how did this father and son team create two championship programs in a town that everyone said was too small for such things?
