One of the best basketball books out there

I have been coaching girls basketball for the last severalyears and am often looking for suitable books to give myplayers to help them work on their own to further developtheir skills. This is the best book I have seen for a juniorhigh or high school player. I covers every aspect of the game,not just skills, but also physical training.

If you are a women and you love basketball buy this book!!!!

I love this book! I think it has great drills and advice in it. It helped me out a lot in my basketball career. If you are serious about basketball and you are a women you should buy this book!!!!

Excellent book, broken down very efficiently!

Being a girls basketball coach, this book is a very beneficial tool for helping young women understand the game more completely. The variety of drills make it easy to design an off season workout schedule. This book is a must buy for anyone serious about the game, whether coach, player, or a serious fan!

Speaks to the mental game - it's great for all sports!!

Although I'm not completely done reading this book - it has already helped me a lot!! As a parent of a 13 year female athlete who has dreams and goals and loves basketball (and all sports!), this book has helped me understand how we can help direct her and it also includes ways for her to help herself.It focuses not only on skills, but on the mental part of the game - what a player needs to do to succeed and also how to do it!!Great for both players and parents of players!!
