Includes chapters on planning the season (assessment, schedules, position assignment, timelines, etc.), planning a practice, fundamental skill strategies (hitting, bunting, fielding, throwing, base running, and sliding), offensive strategy (batting order, bunting and hitting strategies, special situations, etc.), defensive strategy (general rules of defense, player responsibilities). Also covers scouting, game day considerations, season-ending responsibilities, and off-season training, and even tournament planning, field maintenance, and fundraising! Contains dozens of photographs and illustrations.
