The Heart of the Game

The Heart of the Game tells the story of a scrappy Seattle high school girls' basketball team and their unconventional coach, Bill Resler.

Ward Serrill began filming the Roosevelt Roughriders girls' basketball team without knowing the drama that would unfold over the next six seasons. He shows how these gutsy girls triumph on and off the court — and how their coach provokes their self-esteem and self-confidence along the way.

See this movie (available on DVD) and revel in the images of young women expressing their soul power as physical, emotional, and spiritual strength.

Also: check out the conversation between coach Resler and filmmaker Serrill included in the DVD's special features. You'll see a fine example of men actively serving and supporting women as winners.

As Resler says: Have fun. Never give up. Put yourself in a position to be lucky.
