A Good Guide for a New Coach
(Holbrook, MA USA) March 26, 2004 - 5.0/5 stars

Thank You. I'm a father of two daughters (5 and 7) who has never coached before. Although I've played on a softball team at work, and am somewhat familiar with the game, I never actually played little league when I was a kid. With so few coaches however, one of my neighbors asked me to help her coach.

I was a little nervous about giving these girls any bad information.

At this level you should just be reviewing the basics, but since I was never actually formally taught what the basics are, I didn't want to miss anything.

I also didn't want to teach them something that might have the potential of hurting them by accident. After reading this book however I feel much better.

It covered a lot of the things I might have overlooked, and gave me the confidence I'll need to get in front of these kids and parents and not embarrass myself.

The book was straightforward and easy to read (I got through it in about two days which was good for me.) I'd highly recommend it.
