Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Catlin's contention is that soccer is a game of space and time. Traditionally the game has been taught as a system of organizing players to perform functions in general areas of the field. Catlin presents a new "movement system" to stimulate or inhibit the activities of other players. Over 200 photos and drawings, 32 tables, a glossary, and a list of the 17 soccer laws (rules) add depth. Intended for beginners as well as sophisticated players, this book tells how to play, what to do, and why. Chapters discuss basic soccer skills, goalkeeping tactics, set plays, team tactics, offensive and defensive strategies. Recent interest in World Cup soccer may stimulate demand for this title. Other current titles (John McCarthy's Parent's Guide to Coaching Soccer, LJ 5/15/90 and Ted Cook's Spectator's Guide to Soccer, LJ 2/15/90) do not cover the same ground as Catlin's. Not since Kyle Rote's Kyle Rote Jr.'s Complete Book of Soccer (LJ 3/1/78) and Robin Trimby's Soccer Techniques and Tactics (LJ 12/15/77) has this reviewer seen a soccer book of the same quality in terms of format, utility in learning the game, and ease with which concepts are presented.
