5.0 out of 5 stars Book is awesome and a welcomed addition to my coaching style, May 18, 1999

This review is from: Zone Press Variations for Winning Basketball (Art & Science of Coaching) (Paperback)
This book is informative and easy to understand. I will be putting most of this book to use next season with my varsity boys' basketball team. It explained a couple of questions I had about some of my own presses. A must buy for any coach.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smart strategy for 94-feet of defensive intensity, May 16, 2004
By 
Bert Ruiz "Author" (Pleasantville, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Zone Press Variations for Winning Basketball (second edition)" by veteran Division One basketball coach Cliff Ellis offers several smart strategies for implementing 94-feet of defensive intensity.

The "slide & trap" and "dogging" press in this handy book are explained in an easy to understand fashion. Moreover, Coach Ellis includes good teaching drills to perfect the many presses in this text. Chapter one defines the shape of the zone press. Subsequent chapters detail procedures and ways to attack an offense with a "full-court" and "half-court" press. In addition, the final chapter is dedicated to the super important process of knowing when and how to regroup into a zone after the pressure press.

I keep this book in my coaching bag and constantly take it out during those long breaks in AAU tournaments to review what we did right as a team and what we need to continue to work on. Recommended.
