Unlike the stories of most visible Division I college athletes, Amanda Ottaway's story has more in common with those of the 80 percent of college athletes who are never seen on TV. The Rebounders follows the college career of an average NCAA Division I women's basketball player in the twenty-first century, beginning with the recruiting process when Ottaway is an eager, naive teenager and ending when she's a more contemplative twentysomething alumna. Ottaway's story, along with the journeys of her dynamic Wildcat teammates at Davidson College in North Carolina, covers in engaging detail the life of a mid-major athlete: recruitment, the preseason, body image and eating disorders, schoolwork, family relationships, practice, love life, team travel, game day, injuries, drug and alcohol use, coaching changes, and what comes after the very last game. In addition to the everyday issues of being a student athlete, The Rebounders also covers the objectification of female athletes, race, sexuality, and self-expression. Most college athletes, famous or not, play hard, get hurt, fail, and triumph together in a profound love of their sport and one another, and then their careers end and they figure out how to move on. From concussions and minor injuries to classrooms, parties, and relationships, Ottaway understands the experience of a Division I women's basketball player firsthand. The Rebounders is, at its core, a feminist coming-of-age story, an exploration of what it means to be a young woman who loves a sport and is on a course of self-discovery through that medium.

Al attended Oklahoma State University on a full scholarship for wrestling. He completed his college work as a full scholarship wrestler at the University of Utah, qualifying twice for Olympic competition in wrestling. He was all-around gymnastic champion in Montana, Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas. In 1974 and 1975, his Gymnastic Fantastic professional trampoline team gave over 500 performances to more than half a million spectators. Recognizing that his extraordinary good health and superior strength were connected to his work on the trampoline, Carter set out to discover why the human body reacts so positively to rebounding. He developed the Dyna-Bound, a home-sized rebound exerciser and published his book, The Miracles of Rebound Exercise, in 1979. Rebounding was the springboard. The Healthy Cell Concept presented in The New Miracles of Rebound Exercise and The Cancer Answer is the result of over a decade of research on all the components necessary to perfect health. As a lecturer and educator, Carter has appeared on national television in the U.S., Australia, Hong Kong, and the Philippines. In 1983, by special invitation of the Hong Kong government, Carter was retained to teach the 35,000 members of the police and fire departments The Healthy Cell Concept and the benefits of rebounding. He has presented his concepts to numerous medical groups worldwide. Today, Carter is recognized as the world’s greatest authority on rebound exercise.
