About this title

Review:

Basketball: Fundamentals and Team Play is an essential basketball coaching book that focuses on all aspects of the game, addressing the crucial fundamentals and elaborating on the elements of team play. This concise, easy-to-read primer, written by University of Tennessee Women's Basketball Coach Pat Summitt and colleague Debby Jennings, is structured in the same way a coach prepares for a season. Starting with conditioning and weight training, the guide continues with the basics of footwork, shooting, and passing, and then delves into more advanced concepts such as offensive and defensive patterns, strategy, and rules of the game. Coach Summitt's Lady Vols have maintained unprecedented success in the highly competitive world of women's basketball, and Summitt draws on her rich coaching history to assemble a solid coaching tool. Basketball can be used for all levels of learning, teaching, and coaching. --Lance Judd
