Showing titles in Coaching

As the coach, you are the leader of the team and should lead by example. The harder you work, the harder your team will work. There is not a perfect way to coach and it normally takes time to find the style that works best for you and motivates your players. This book will help you in that process. This book is not intended to be a complete guide on coaching because if you have ever coached, you realize that everything to know could not be contained in one book. It will help you become the coach that changes every game, the coach whose team every player wants to be on.
