Hello! Looking for a novel or trilogy that has to do with the rise of a character something similar to a coming of age but instead of sword and sorcery it being sports. Preferably football or MMA but it can be anything.
If there is any romance in it I don't mind while it's not the whole theme of the book. Books that I have already read and liked are:
Tony Winters by P.S. Power (MMA)
Sooley by John Grisham (basketball)
Player Manager by Ted Steel (football/soccer)
Carrie Soto is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid (tennis)
The Rookie
Thank you!
