Excellent Resource

This book is an excellent resource for coaches involved in any sport. If you have already been a head coach for a while, most of the material is not going to be anything you have not dealt with already, but the author does a great job of putting the many tasks coaches have to deal with in perspective and offers a wide variety of ways to handle about every situation that can arise throughout a coaching career. I especially recomend this book for young coaches just getting into the profession. I wish I would have read this when I first broke into coaching. Coaching is often stereotyped as practice and game management alone, but as people who do it for a living know there is much more to it than that, and this book does an excellent job of generating some good ideas and philosophies about handling the job.

Ideal for coaches of any sport with players at any age and skill level.
