Lloyd Percival Coach and Visionary: Revised and Fully Referenced Edition
"I'm a controversialist. People either swear by me or swear at me." Lloyd Percival During his extraordinary career as an athlete, a health and physical fitness expert, and a media personality, but primarily as a coach, millions of Canadians swore by Lloyd Percival because he was a coach like no other coach Canada has ever seen.

Lloyd Percival
They called him 'Coach', but Lloyd Percival was much more. He introduced modern track and field to Canada, produced a blueprint for radically changing the way hockey was played, built the world's first modern fitness club, inspired and contributed to government policy on sport, and was instrumental in the success of Canada's best amateur and professional athletes.

It is the first book required by pl...
