Buy this book if you have never coached before

This is an outstanding book for adults who know the game but who have never coached before. Moreover, "Coaching Kids to Play Baseball & Softball," is an excellent text for adults who have the time to coach a local community youth team but do not have a strong knowledge of baseball and softball. Authors Kurt Aschermann and Gerard O'Shea break the teaching process into a simple step-by-step approach. The language is straightforward and not filled with trite baseball cliches. The book does cover common baseball and softball "buzz words" but does so in a succinct and clear fashion. All in all,I was truly impressed with Chapter Two, "Planning a Meaningful Practice," where the authors describe in great detail how to build self-esteem, avoid injuries, build teamwork and teach the game properly.Other important chapters include throwing & catching, hitting, pitching, catching, playing the infield, playing the outfield, managing and coaching a game and a very valuable section that reviews reminders for your gameday/practice clipboard. This is a fun book. It starts with the basics and advances to more comprehensive levels of the game. Still and all, a strong feature of this book is the importance of sportsmanship and how every player and coach who puts on a uniform is an ambassador of the community. Recommended.Bert Ruiz
