A program and career building block!!!

This book is essential for anyone who is considering entering the coaching arena. The book is not a primer on running plays and rebounding effectively. It is the keystone for building an effective program and increasing the effectiveness of the coaches who are entrusted with it! I have used this book and its philosophies to better understand my motivations on the sideline and improve my relationships with my players and other coaches. This book was placed in the working library of the Morris Center YMCA (Cedar Knolls, N.J.) where we used it to help push the enrollment in our Youth Basketball Association to over 450 children. I am now the Assistant Basketball Coach at the College of St. Elizabeth (Convent Station, N.J.) and I have assigned chapters for other coaches to read and several of the forms have been modified for my specific needs. If you are building a program, a career or both, this must be in your collection!
