Drawing on his experience in coaching baseball and soccer at various levels, author John Hourihan provides valuable advice in every chapter, on topics such as: Molding your team (from before tryouts through setting up your defense) Teaching the basics Putting your team in a position to win Dos and don'ts Unfortunately, most novice youth baseball coaches settle into what they thought was going on when they were ten years old--the games where everyone got gum in the beginning and ice cream at the end. Today, there is a lot more to baseball that is being left out. If you're a youth league coach, to many players you are the game.

Download or read book A Coach s Handbook written by Jeff Gutjahr and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is unique in the sense that the author, Andra Pickett, actually seeks the message that is embodied in each spoken word or words written herein. The author has challenged the soundness of a tradition that says the spoken word is the spirit of the message. Ironically, he advances the notion that the opposite is true, and that the message is the spirit of the word. In the first chapter for instance, the sub-title: in the search to find one's self, the message is unrevealed, but is it, for example the unrevealed message is that a man's shadow carries his burdens. The author in this book seeks to reveal the messages hidden in words throughout all 21 short chapters, spoken words, short stories and poems. The concept of The Message Seeker is interesting, but reading this book requires one to carefully read with an open mind. The messages that are unrevealed in the sub-titles are indeed revealed from within the content of the chapters. The author and the reader experience, the message seeker's journey through what turns out to be a true story. As you read this book you are mystified by the author's ability to stand beside him self, also, to blend words together as he seeks to reveal the hidden messages contained therein unto his own understanding. Remember, when reading this book; read with an open mind, an inner voice reveals each hidden message that lies beyond consciousness in each word(s). Be prepared to encounter a unique experience in reading this true story written by Andra Pickett. http://www.bookpubco.net/ Arthur Stovall, Ph.D. Story Analyst
