Customer Reviews

The best basketball book sold

I have read many 'how to' basketball books, all disappointing. I finally found this one and find it 100% effective. I wish my high school coaches had read this book and taught the techniques when I played. Today I play Senior Basketball and find I still have much to learn. This book covers it all. I read a little at a time and try to make its principles habit. This book is for players and coaches of all ages. Study it well.

The Basketball Coaches Bible

A gift for my son who is a high school basketball coach. He has found the book very helpful. Good choice.

One of the best of its' kind

As a coach of a 5th and 6th grade boys basketball team I found this book a tremendous teaching tool this season. Most of the children I coach have had little or no formal teaching in basketball previous to me. This books true value comes from being geared towards all skill levels. A coach at my level, straight through coaches of High school varsity teams, can find drills to introduce to their players. Every year I've bought a new book on drills because I've never been completly happy with the previous years' purchase. I'm happy to say that next year, and for many more to come, I won't have to buy another.

A Terrific Tool!

As a youth basketball coach, I love this book...it gives practice drills, philosophies, plays, and strategies to make your players learn the fundamentals of the game...I highly recommend this book to any coach!

An outstanding guide you can't be without.

This is an outstanding fundamentals guide that I use for my girls youth team, age 12. I found this book in a bookstore during a visit in Chicago. Now I try to convince my coach partners to buy this book as well.
