Book Notes: "Remember Why You Play" by David Thomas

"Remember Why You Play" by David Thomas is a moving true story about faith, football, and the power of sports to transform lives. The book follows the Grapevine Faith Christian School football team in Texas, led by Coach Kris Hogan. The heart of the story revolves around a remarkable game in 2008 when Faith played against the Gainesville State School—a maximum-security juvenile correctional facility. Knowing Gainesville's players never had fans, Hogan asked Faith’s community to cheer for their opponent. What unfolded was an incredible display of grace, sportsmanship, and empathy, as parents and students brought signs, cheered names, and treated the boys from Gainesville like stars.
