Coach of the Year (2015)

COACH OF THE YEAR is a rousing sports comedy about an unconventional coach who guides an underdog team to victory. Set against the high-spirited world of high school swimming, the film stars Harris Doran, Melissa Archer, Chris Ceraso, Paten Hughes, James McCaffrey, Kevin Brown, and Edward Herrmann, appearing in his ultimate onscreen role. In his feature film debut, award-winning writer/director David Stott enlivens the movie with an unusual degree of technical and emotional authenticity. The story draws on his extensive swimming and coaching experience and the events depicted in his film, even those that seem too good to be true, are based on his own life and experiences. Produced by Melissa Gundlach, Donna McKenna, David Stott and 12 time Olympic medalist Natalie Coughlin, COACH OF THE YEAR is in its final stages of post-production and is being readied for commercial release later this year.
