Description

An inspiring autobiographical work by England's netball star and Olympic gold medalist Geva Mentor. In her honest, open, and inspiring autobiography, "Leap," she sheds light on her journey to the top. As a child, Geva had a natural talent for sports, starting as a champion in trampoline. However, as she grew up, she had to try something new and found herself in basketball, but opponents complained that she was too good. One day, in an impromptu netball match, she found her niche. Geva's rise to the top of British netball was exponential, as she played for England's national team at just 15 years old. Thanks to her bold choices, she moved to Australia to develop her game, eventually winning the gold medal at the Commonwealth Games. However, it wasn't all easy, and Geva candidly shares her personal challenges, as well as how the difficulties and failures of her teams inspired her to achieve the highest success possible in the sport.
