4.0 out of 5 stars good info on coaching, not so good on techniques, February 26, 2006
This review is from: Coaching Olympic Style Boxing (Paperback)
I found the book to contain great information on coaching boxing (I am a usa coach). Actually, the book would be valuable for a coach of any sport.

However, when the book explained boxing techniques and drills it was so, so. Some of them were hard to follow. Some of them explained things conventionally, but showed a southpaw performing them backwards.

All in all a worthwhile book.

3.0 out of 5 stars I Guess that You Have to Have it, March 14, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Coaching Olympic Style Boxing (Paperback)
It has some good information in it, but not great. If you are going to coach amateur boxing, it is a must have I guess.
