From another coach November 24, 2006 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I've started looking over this book and Gary Barber has done a great job of capturing what is really needed with starting kids in athletics. Far too man of the "coaches" kids encounter today are ready to have them go pro at any cost.
Gary has done a great job at putting forward the development and making it fun. Assuring that the childs experience is rewarding yet still providing the desire to go higher. A very good piece of work, you should adapt it to the baseball, football and soccer coaches as well.
