Coach

Narrative Nonfiction · In Development

Coach

Through personal memories and interviews with former players, coaches, friends, and family, I’m piecing together the story of my dad, Joe Reyda, whose life was defined by his love of coaching, passion for athletics, and unwavering dedication to his family. Told through the eyes of those who knew him best, this book explores the relationships he built, the lives he shaped, and the legacy he left behind, both on and off the field.
