Review

VERY thorough. Highly recommend to any coach, from well-seasoned to 'newbie'; ESPECIALLY a coach coming from a private club setting into the high school arena. AD's should make this mandatory. I have coached all levels for 20+ years then added high school coaching 8 years ago, wished this was around then!
Detailed preseason training, drills, parent-booster meetings, discipline guidelines [love the "You surprise me, I'll surprise you!" concept! Using that this week, worth the price of admission on its own]! I have read through this twice, important to remember it is a workbook! A work in progress to be used over and over again!    - Kirk Orohood

As a high school and college tennis coach for more than 35 years, I enjoy reading what other coaches have to say on the subject. This workbook is an excellent companion to Bill Patton's book "The Art of Coaching High School Tennis." Veteran coaches may find a lot familiar, but also reassuring. They will also come across some different ways of doing things, or things they might not have thought about. As for newer coaches, this book and workbook will provide you with the foundation to running a successful program. The workbook helps you keep everything organized, which is half the battle.  D.C.
