This review is from: Developing a Successful Cheerleading Program: The Complete Guide from A to Z (Developing a Successful Program) (Paperback)
This book is a completely comprehensive look at coaching a cheersquad. It is not specific to the United States, so most of the suggestions, strategies and helpful hits can be used in countries outside of there (for me specifically Australia). Just starting a squad is must less daunting with the assistance of this text, as it clearly lays out an idiot-proof way to work through each step. Thanks heaps!!

This is an excellent bookby Headridge and Garr. It's really helpful for us coaches because it brings information and photos about procedures as well as documents for every purpose, such as parents' permission forms and others.I do reccomend this book. Purchase it without fear, either if you are a new coach or an experienced one.
