4.0 out of 5 stars Great tool for novices, October 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Lacrosse: Fundamentals for Winning (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books) (Paperback)

This book is an excellent tool for novices of the game. It gives chapters about the positions and techniques of the game and could be very helpul if you are learning lacrosse. It is also a resourceful tool as a coach (of kids under about 14) and gives pointers on all aspects of the game. If you have been playing lacrosse for a while you may want to look to another source for information about the game, although this book would be somewhat entertaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive, but easy-to-understand guide to Lacrosse, June 15, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Lacrosse: Fundamentals for Winning (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books) (Paperback)

I coach high school Lacrosse in Missouri, and have found this book a valuable tool in teaching Lacrosse to my players and their parents. I also loan this book out to other coaches and assistant coaches. The book is very comprehensive, but it is so easy to understand, that a total novice at Lacrosse is able to understand the game and even feel like an authority. It covers rules, history and strategy. In an area where Lacrosse is relatively new, this book is a god-send

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, July 6, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Lacrosse: Fundamentals for Winning (Sports Illustrated Winner's Circle Books) (Paperback)

This book helped me out a lot. I play goalie and defense and this book has very helpful sections on both postitions. My firends and I brought this to our team practice and our coach read it and said that he will use all of the drills given to help us out. This is a very good buy and i reccomend it to every beginning and advanced player out there.
