This review is from: The Basic Elements of the Game (Best of Coaching Volleyball) (Paperback)

There are three books in this series of compilations of articles from Coaching Volleyball Magazine, the magazine of the American Volleyball Coach's Association. These articles are written by coaches going through the Coaching Accreditation Program Level II certification. Many are collegiate and high school coaches, some are club coaches. Interesting perspectives on many different aspects of running a team, a program, or a club. The technical elements are good, but you have to know the game relatively well for some of the advanced parts because the illustrations are kind of vague. The basic elements book is good for the beginning coaches.

If you're considering becoming a volleyball coach, I'd recommend this book. There are tips on every phase of the game, from the physical skills of your players to the mental aspects of dealing with athletes under stress.

When I began thinking about coaching high school ball, this was one of the books I turned to for help and advice. It helped me, and it can help you, as well.
