| Publisher Description: Basketball Chronicles: Articles on Youth Coaching is a compilation of twenty-six articles I have written about coaching basketball, especially youth basketball. I have been coaching youth sports for twenty-five years. In addition to coaching basketball, I have coached soccer, baseball, and softball. When coaching, I have found that some drills and techniques will work with some teams and in certain years, but may not work with a whole new group of players in another season. As coaches, we have to learn to be flexible and adapt. These articles will tend to sound like a biography about my experiences in basketball, but I have related many events in my lifetime from watching basketball to coaching this great game. Featured in these articles are both on-field and off-field topics that are designed to help the youth coach run a successful season, whether it is handling the team's parents or reviewing shooting drills for youth athletes. Based on my experiences, the subjects discussed in the following articles are overlooked by many coaches, but could be the secret to success. A number of years ago I produced a baseball video The 59 Minute Baseball Practice, which was a compilation of drills that became very popular for youth baseball coaches. My main goal in making that video is very similar to my goal in writing this book. I want coaches to put on their creative hats and invent their own drills, inbound plays, defensive schemes, and more. |
