Rocks Across the Pond
Kathy & Richard Verlander
Curling's unlikely champions
With little background or experience in any type of organized sports, Kathy and Richard Verlander had no hint of the turn their lives was about to take when a neighbor from across the street suggested that their 6-year-old son Justin should sign up for Little League Baseball. From the start in 1989 as parents of Justin and later his younger brother Ben, they never imagined that 20 years later they would be receiving the Little League Parents Of The Year Award in Williamsport, PA, an honor bestowed annually on the parents of major league stars that played Little League Baseball.
Kathy and Richard believe that baseball is a great metaphor for life and that lessons learned from it can last a lifetime for both the players and their families and friends. They have written a book and speak often about their journey and the challenges and rewards of helping their talented sons develop their potential as both athletes and young men.
