  • Rating Excellent Resource  May 18, 2000 (16 of 17 found this helpful)

    The authors have done a wonderful job of breaking down the various skills, from beginning to advanced, required to develop or improve your game. Each of the various skills is explained in detail (and illustrated!) and supported with drills of increasing difficulty. This book is an excellent resource, both for the player desiring to improve their skills and the coach looking for useful practice techniques. I highly recommend it!

  • Rating A very satisfied Amazon Customer!!  Sep 29, 2009 (0 of 1 found this helpful)

    All I have to say is that I'm very satisifed with the timely manner of my purchase. I needed my books ASAP because at the University I attend, they were all sold out. I decided to have it rushed and the estimated delivery time was 100% accurate! Amazon once again has not let me down!!
