I recommend "reading" this book if you're someone who, like me, needs every line explained and detailed in order to understand why your coach keeps yelling at you when you thought you were executing the play correctly. Even though this book is flooded with play after play, I gained a better understanding of all the drills I've had to run over a lifetime of practices. After searching the web endlessly for any help with winger positioning, I went ahead and took the risk of buying this book. I was very suprised at how much I didn't know about the game I play.
This may be the only book a coach needs. Positioning, systems, drills, and it has alot of options for each. This is the most important book in my coaching collection. It has everything a coach needs.
More enjoyable.a deeper connection with the game.I didn't know exactly what was happeneing on the ice, but knew the basics and was able to more fully follow what the guys were trying to do.I look forward to a few more readings through this book.and getting ready to watch the playoffs this year.with a more tuned in eye. I remember learning basketball as a kid.watching it on TV was boring, one team scored, the other scored and not much looked different.Then I learned about offense and defense and it all changed.became a lot more enjoyable and to this day I can watch a game and get involved.Well, I'm learning Hockey now.as an adult. I don't have coaches around me to teach me.this book gives a good insight on what to look out for in a game.Offense and defense.After one reading I went to a game.and it was a different experience.
Most of the book is too advanced for Mites and squirts. The book is layed out well, and the drills are helpful. My only disappointment was that the book is taylored to older kids who can more readily grasp the basic concepts.
Very helpfull A good resource for an inexperienced coach to find the info needed to introduce the X's and O's to a house Pee Wee team.
