Understanding Basics of Hockey November 21, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Having become a hockey fan in the last couple of years, I was drawn to this book in an attempt to gain a better understanding of the sport. It's a perfect book for a newcomer - not only for coaching - but new fans as well. The book clearly and precisely explains the many rules of the game as well as the coach's role in developing young players. Diagrams are very well done and I would recommend the book to coaches, parents and new fans as well!
An Excellent Resource for Coaching Hockey! November 17, 2004
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Coaching Youth Hockey: The Baffled Parent's Guide is the perfect book for coaches, parents and young players. Each chapter is essential reading with detailed information, great pictures, and invaluable diagrams that make understanding the game a simple task. This book offers tips on how to coach effectively and how to build good sportsmanship. This is by far the best written and most detailed guide about coaching youth hockey. It also offers its reader the choice to read chapter by chapter or to refer to a particular chapter for a specific skill. This guide is a must for your sports library!
Best hockey guide I've ever read. November 10, 2004
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book answered more hockey questions than I knew to ask. The material is presented in a clear, straight-forward manner with plenty of helpful diagrams and hints to make anyone successful at coaching hockey. If you're a coach, it will serve as your ultimate guide. If you're a hockey parent, it will show you what the coach can and should be doing for your child and the team.
The ultimate "how to" youth hockey book! November 5, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I highly recommend this book! It is a well-written, well-organized book for the youth hockey coach and parent as well as for the avid youth hockey fan. It covers all apsects of coaching youth hockey, from teaching the basics of the game through developing hockey skills and finally to playing the game itself. Most importantly, the book teaches the youth hockey coach and the parent how to develop the most important element of the game - the hockey player!
This is NOT "Coaching Hockey for Dummies" November 3, 2004
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
When I first ordered this book I thought it would be just be another "How to..." book. This book is DETAILED. From the advise on managing your team to the skating, shooting, puck handling and checking fundamentals to the instruction for each and every position on the ice. And to top it all off there are countless detailed drills for every situation and level of team and player developemnet. As a USA Hockey Coach at the Bantam level, this book will go into my briefcase as a handy reference. This should not be the "Baffled" parents guide, but the "Detailed" Parents guide to Coaching Youth Hockey. This should be mandatory reading for every parent and coach before they enter the rink. This is truly an awesome effort.
