(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Soccer Tactics and Teamwork (Paperback)
This book was first published in 1973, but remarkably little has changed from a technical or tactical standpoint in the time between now and then. This book provides the basis and terminology for all of the USSF licensing courses (yes, we copied the English). Another benefit is that it contains very clear diagrams of both correct and incorrect positions (placed side by side for comparison) in areas of discussion which include, but are not limited to: creating space, support in attack, passing, shooting, defending and attacking at set pieces, and goalkeeping. The book does include some activities for use in training sessions, but if you are looking for a drill book, this is not the one to buy. Having said that, however, I highly recommend this book, as it is an excellent primer and resource on coaching tactics. It is written in such a way as to be applicable to any team that plays 11 a side (although many of the concepts are applicable to any team because they are emphasized in a small sided setting such as 2 v. 1), and can be understood easily by any coach from novice to expert.
