Court-Side Moms

Bright lights, centre court, multimillion dollar contracts and adoring fans.That’s what most of us imagine when we think of the world of professional athletes. But what is the story behind the images? What does the road to stardom look like? Who better to answer these questions and many more than the moms who were there every step of the way. “Court-Side Moms” is the first of its kind to focus solely on the experiences of professional basketball player’s mothers, giving us a new perspective on the lives of some of our favorite athletes. We explore the thoughts, feelings and experiences of those moms who have watched their children join the elite world of pro sports. The joys, challenges, heartaches, the big and small moments that transformed theirs and their children’s lives. Join Wendy Sparks, mother of Orlando Magic’s Khem Birch and host of Court-side Moms, as she sits down with other basketball moms to hear their stories and discuss the reality of raising high performance athletes.
