Not a season goes by I don't give this book a twice over to look for some drill I might of missed, great read for new and experienced coaches.

One problem with being a beginning coach is the constant and nagging suspicion that there is one absolute and definitive drill that will magically solve all of your problems for you. Well, no. It takes a systematic design of the practice and a good understanding to coach the sport. But what is a beginning coach to do?
This book is a good source for drills, but Coach Wise presents the drills in a format that encourages people to think about the skill very first and then go into the drills. This is a drill book but it is a little more than that. Each chapter breaks down the essntials of the theme of the chapter and THEN goes into the drills. For those desperate for more drills, that does not prove to be enough of a side track to force them to think about what they are teaching, but for those who do stop and reflect on the technique and skills required to perform the drills, it is a nice touch that proves to be very beneficial. Because of the scattered nature of the book, a name college coach wrote each of the chapters, this is a compendium of knowledge which is quite uneven in terms of writing. But is serves its purpose well.
I would recommend Arie Selinger's book and Mike Hebert's book for more advanced coaches and Bill Neville's book for beginning coaches who actually wants to coach and not just throw the kids into a maze of drills.

This book has a lot of good basic drill for the technical game of volleyball. I must say, for the coach that does not have a lot of drill tucked away in his/her head, this book is a definite asset. It has a lot of good solid drills that would help any coach. I would have like to have seen some more technical drill, but on the other hand, if your team can handle all of the drills provided, your doing alright.. Well worth the money.. Thanks
