After years of watching, reporting on, and photographing pro baseball, Kevin T. Czerwinski and Beth Balbierz began coaching Little League in their respective home towns. In "Knack Coaching Youth Baseball," this expert team combine real-life know-how about how to deal with kids with the best lessons they've learned from the pros, creating a reliable, usable, and winning instruction book for youth baseball coaches -- and for parents who want some ideas for giving their kids a few pointers in the backyard.
Baseball is a simple enough game. Yet, mastering the skills requisite to play the game at a competitive level, regardless of one’s age, often isn’t easy. Knack Coaching Youth Baseball applies the unique Knack format—short passages of text linked to instructive photography of both boys and girls playing the sport, all organized into spread-based lessons—to present basic and advanced information about coaching this popular youth sport for kids aged five to fourteen. The author, a sportswriter who coaches his son’s little league team, focuses on techniques that will help any team win while reminding coaches that children should have fun above all else.
