David Skuy spent most of his childhood playing one sport or another — hockey, soccer, football, rugby. Now he is a writer and lawyer who lives in Toronto, Ontario with his wife and two kids. He still plays hockey, coaches at minor league level, and remains a die-hard Leafs fan. He began writing the Game Time series to try to capture the competition, the challenges, the friendships and the rivalries that make sports so much fun.
His book Undergrounders won the Silver Birch Award in 2012. Rocket Blues, his first book about Bryan “Rocket” Rockwood, was a Best Books for Kids and Teens starred selection and is nominated for the Snow Willow Award and the Manitoba Young Readers’ Choice Award.
