Fantastic reference
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I am new to the game of lacrosse, but have volunteered to help coach my son's team of beginners (first & second graders). This book was a tremendous help in explaining the general rules, structuring practices, and drills. The book references a coaching system called the 'Positive Coaches Alliance', which gives great pointers on approaching practices and general coaching philosophies. I have coached soccer for six years and still found some of the coaching methods to be very helpful. Not only for lacrosse, but for caoching in general. I will be applying these techniques to soccer (along with modifying some of the lacrosse drills). I highly recommend this book as your first lacrosse resource.

A comprehensive, instructive book for any lacrosse coach
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The first and only lacrosse coaching book I've bought. Very helpful in teaching basic techniques and organizing practices. Offers many themed games and drills that provide variety and fun for youth practices. Also provides tactical drills and games for "A" teams. I highly recommend this book for any coach looking for some fresh ideas or any prospective coaches looking for an introduction to the sport.
