The Baseball Handbook for Coaches and Players Book

At last, here's a simple and straightforward guide not only to how to play baseball, but to how to coach it as well. Easy to read and easy to implement, the Handbook outlines all the basics of the National Pastime, complete with charts, diagrams, graphic presentations on hitting, fielding, and baserunning techniques, and practice drills. Coach Depel takes you through all the fundamentals of the game, including offense, defense, how to set up the playing field for games, and, of course, the basic rules of baseball.

The Baseball Handbook for Coaches and Players is purposely designed for players or parents who want to increase their knowledge of the game. Approved by Little League Baseball, the National Baseball Congress, and Pony Baseball, it's the perfect "starter" book for anyone who has ever picked up a bat, ball, and glove.
