3 out of 5 stars High School and Travel Teams Will Benefit   January 9, 2007
As the head coach of a junior high fastpitch and also a 14U travel team, I stress the mental aspect of the game, which is believed to be 90% of the game. This book is particularly helpful for travel teams that play numerous tournaments each season. Having your players in top physical and mental condition, whether it is the first game at 8:00am on Saturday morning to the fourth game of the same day at 8:00pm,this book covers how to prepare teams to endure that kind of schedule. Energy utilization, positive thinking, and overall conditioning are addressed, while incorporating softball specific drills to bring out the best in players. I gave this three stars because it applies more to high school and college age girls playing on travel and elite teams.
