This is a clean and simple book to make you a better baseball coach. Everyone one should use this as a step 1. Youth organizations should be purchasing this in bulk and distributed to all their coaches. Being able to become a better coach of young players is a skill that is so overlooked. Players are at such an impressionable age in youth baseball at all ages that something like this will give players and coaches such a better experience and retain more players in the sport. This can be used for coaches of all levels but again is an absolute MUST for anyone in youth baseball 13 and under. Very well done! - M. Landis, Dir. of Player Development, New Balance Baseball Future Stars/Program 15 sports.
Everything you need to know as a student of the game to learn the game the right way
My son reads through this book about once a month. It shows in his understanding of the game and sets him apart from his peers. He knows what he is supposed to be doing at any position no matter where the ball is hit.
I bought the book for my son, but before I read it and it is insightful. I bought it to help with the mental part of the game for my son. I gave it to him with a reward when he finishes. He has not put it down since. He said there are chapters he re read to make sure he understood it. That is what i am talking about. Thank you
My 9 year old son LOVES this book!
Great started book for new and not so new players
Got this book for our 9 year old grandson. He’s very into baseball. He loves the tips and history in the book. And it’s getting him to read!
My 13 year old picked this book to help him improve his baseball game. He has referenced the book several times and I really feel the book has improved his mindset, especially with hitting. He also has a better understanding of the game and is able to think ahead a know what to do. Overall great book, highly recommend!
