A Coach's Manual for Beginners

Rating:
Summary: Practical guide to coaching
Review: This book is an excellent guide for the beginning coach for any sport as well as a technical guide for baseball. Too often coach's manuals neglect the basic tasks of coaching a youth sport. Team meetings, parent involvement and eager athletes are as important as game skills. These areas are equally addressed here. This coach's guide is an easy read with several interesting real life experiences by the author. I am a retired youth sports organizer/coach trainer for the Recreation Dept. in my town and would have found my job much easier with a handbook such as this to pass on to our coaches.
