Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
This second edition features the games approach to coaching hockey, which makes practice more fun for the kids and teaching more effective for you, the coach. Also included are chapters on communicating with athletes and parents, planning and conducting practice, and coaching during games.
Developed by the American Sport Education Program (ASEP), the nation’s number one coaching education program, Coaching Youth Hockey provides volunteer coaches with both an explanation of their role and concrete instructions on how to fulfill that role.

Clearly not written by hockey people.
I could give numerous examples like pg 40 "Get Your Players' Attention" "Make sure they aren't looking into the sun or at some distracting activity."
Practic plans are a joke. No way someone could run a 50 min practice based on these practice plans.

I needed to understand how to teach children under 10 the game of Hockey and start towards gaining a coaching award in this age group. This book gives me a greater understanding of what turns on a childs interest and haw to maintain this interest.

This book offers a comprehensive set of introductory materials needed for the very first time or experienced hockey coach. It is useful for either ice or roller hockey. I particularly appreciated the author's including the social, communication, and motivational aspects of coaching youth sports. Full of handy checklists and drills to emphasize the needed skills, this book provides a solid foundation for developing "your own" hockey teaching and coaching program. The drills and progressions are excellent. The book would be better with more technical emphasis on skating skills and techniques. But overall, I would recommend it for any coach or parent who is close to this fast-growing sport!
