Discover a revolutionary and superior way to coach! Games Approach to Coaching Baseball shows you how to use this new approach to help 6- to 14-year-old athletes learn game skills and tactics more effectively than with the traditional “drills-first, play-later” approach. The games approach begins with kids playing the game. As they play, they learn and appreciate the skills and tactics needed to play the game successfully. Games are modified to strengthen individual technique and team play. Kids have more fun and are more motivated to practice in these small-sided games rather than standing in boring drill lines. Games Approach to Coaching Baseball clearly demonstrates how to: • modify games to focus on particular skills and tactics; • adjust the difficulty depending on your athletes’ needs; • assess players as they play; • actively involve players in the learning process; and • teach and refine baseball skills and strategies. About the Editor The American Sport Education Program (ASEP) is the most widely used and respected sport education program in the United States and the world. ASEP’s mission is to help improve the sport experiences of all youth athletes by providing quality instructional resources, workshops, and courses for coaches, officials, administrators and parents. ASEP strives to spread it’s philosophy of "athletes first, winning second" by providing the necessary tools to help put that philosophy to work in local programs and institutions. Over one million people have used ASEP products since the program began in 1981. More than thirty states now require ASEP courses for their high school coaches, and more than 200 universities use ASEP courses and resources. ASEP courses are used by many national and local sport organizations as well, including the National Federation of State High School Associations, National Recreation and Park Association, U.S. Army youth sports, USA Baseball, USA Volleyball, USA Gymnastics, US Swimming, and the U.S. Tennis Association, just to name a few. ASEP courses—taught by 3,000 instructors nationwide—have and will continue to show adults involved in youth sports how to place the physical, mental, and social development of an athlete before winning. |
