Description
"It's the Coach's Fault" .. a look at the phrase, not just sports-related, but also in the social environment. It's about a boy who finds his place in the world through basketball and a man who learns that there is much more to basketball than "just" basketball and more to basketball than "just" basketball. A boy grows up in a broken family in Philadelphia. He gets in trouble and is sent to a reform school. There he finds the game of basketball. He pursues the dream of becoming a player and learns that the coaches behind us in every facet of our lives help us to become whoever and whatever we are. He decides to try and become one of those coaches. There are triumphs, failures and even disasters along his journey. He learns the lesson that sometimes all we can do is... all we can do. Why you should read this book! Maybe one item, one sentence might strike a chord and influence you to think a little bit differently about something. That one item may cause you to make a change in an offense or do something different with your kids, or do something different as a ref. If one sentence causes you to see your calls differently, coach your team a little differently, give one player a little more playing time or another player a little less playing time... If something in this book results in your being less argumentative or better capable of holding your ground and doing what's best for you...if one small suggestion makes a change in anything you do, then everything that I have written here will have served its purpose. Ray "Ritz" Ingram
