Tyrese Maxey’s mom, Denyse Maxey

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?  What does it take to get there?  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, the challenges, the heart aches, the big and small moments that transformed their lives and those of their children. No one understands this better than Wendy Sparks, the mother of Toronto Raptors Center, Khem Birch and the host of Court-side Moms.   Wendy will sit down with other basketball moms to hear their stories, creating the first platform for moms to kick back and chat about their kids, and to discuss the reality of raising high performance athletes.
