Help Kyle bring Sydney’s Silver Lining to Print Today
It’s time to help women’s water polo come to print.Â
Our own Kyle Utsumi is writing a book chronicling the story of the 2000 women’s Olympic team in a book called Sydney’s Silver Lining.  The book will celebrate this historic team which overcame the odds to reach the podium at the FIRST EVER women’s Olympic Water Polo competition.  This story will look back at the pre-Olympic era of women’s water polo and examine how the Sydney team served as the catalyst for explosive growth of the sport, paving the way to the top of the world rankings today.  With the 2016 Olympics in Rio around the corner, now is the perfect time for this book to reach our community.
To self-publish this book, Kyle is conducting a Kickstarter campaign starting TODAY.  You can support the project and the many members of the Sydney Olympic team, many with Stanford club or college ties, who call the Bay Area home – Ellen Estes Lee, Courtney Johnson, Brenda Villa, & Bernice O’Connor – by making a pledge on the Kickstarter page today!
