Coaching books/sites

[Getpaddled]

An opportunity has jumped out at me to be an assistant coach for my local legion baseball team this next year and a very good chance to be head coach the year after. Although I am confident in myself I feel you can never know too much in baseball. I am looking for some coaching books/sites to read up on so I am fully ready to take on this responsibility. I would also like to see some books/sites that deal with out of line parents of ball players. It's impossible to make every parent happy with giving there son playing time. I just want to be able to handle these up coming situations with class and the knowledge that I did the right thing. Any one that has any tips for me that has ?been there done that? please share them with me.

Get paddle, sent you a message on a book...don't know any sites Syskos in Benton WIsconsin use to be great but they don't do baseball anymore...how to deal with parents...have rules...number one rule

 

1. No talking to any coach before, during or after a game! Coaches will not discuss playing time with parents! Please respect this rule!

 

It works just stay strong with it

Just get that Fred McGriff video they've been selling for 20 years. Apparently the team featured in those videos won like 4 titles!
