-Winner of the Vikki Orvice Prize-
A star athlete shares her trailblazing account of triumph in the face of sexism, self-doubt, and injury, gives a remarkable global tour of the women's soccer world, and presents a stirring call-to-action to secure equal pay and conditions.When Susie Petruccelli won a place on Harvard University's soccer team, she felt on top of the world-talented, strong, and worthy. Unfortunately, after sustaining injuries and developing health problems, she felt her worth as a player, and as a person, slip away.Raised to be a warrior by her father, Petruccelli first fought her way back onto the soccer field and later fought for a life made rich by a fulfilling career and a loving family. But as she waged battles of her own, she uncovered the inequities and discrimination female athletes face.In Raised a Warrior, Petruccelli inspires players of all sports who've faced injuries to persevere, introduces readers to the international athletes and activists fighting for equal pay and conditions, and reveals the progress made, as well as the force of the movement and the battles ahead.
