For young basketball players, it’s not all about Xs and Os. What sets this apart from other basketball coaching books are topics like:

· 30 ideas to keep kids interested in basketball — From a “Rock n’ Roll” practice to a “Slam Dunk Photo Session,” you’ll learn some proven concepts to keep your players engaged during the season. Kids will look forward to practices as much as games.

· A detailed explanation of how to handle your first player meeting and your first parent meeting. A sample introductory email to parents is included.

· An inexpensive and simple way to create a team website and how to use your camcorder to make the most of the basketball season.

· Team nickname ideas and slogan suggestions like “There’s no traffic on the extra mile” and “Teamwork makes the Dream Work.”
