Excerpt
Throughout my many years organizing Baseball, Softball and T-Ball, I have found many parents willing to coach their son or daughter's team who felt like they lacked the skills to do so. Bob Swope's handbook is the perfect tool to give these parents the confidence and knowledge to coach any team at any level. His drills are excellent and easy to follow. Another attractive aspect of his books is that he uses everyday items in lieu of expensive specialized equipment for his drills. I strongly recommend Bob's book.
