This is a unique look into the "File Cabinet" of nearly 60 years of a coaching journey. The pages of this book were collected for one purpose: "TO FIND A BETTER WAY." A better way of teaching, learning, communicating, motivating, understanding and developing a culture of grit and winning games. It is believed, studying the wisdom of the coaches in this anthology will inspire the reader in helping players and others reach higher and achieve more than they thought possible.
Inside the pages of this book, readers will be taken through 10 enlightening sections:
- The Banquet - Get Their Attention
- Motivation - "It's What Moves Us."
- Coaches - As Story Tellers.
- The Coaches - Speak to Us.
- Recruiting - It's A Game, "Play It."
- Coaching - "More Than A Game, But Still A Game."
- Statistical Measurement and Winning.
- Grinders Win.
- The Coaches Playbook.
- "It's in the Bottom Draw"
Anything you need to become a better coach - you better believe - It's In The "FILE CABINET."
