A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit
What Others Say About the Book "If you are a serious coach, or a weekend assistant for your daughter's team, A Softball Coaches Tool Kit is a must read." Softball
West Magazine ."A Softball
Coaches Tool Kit is the lifesaver to the
beginner and a useful addition to the softball expert. This book is not
only a guide to successful coaching, but it also offers all of the
techniques and handout formats on a CD"

can't get over how great your Tool Kit is. I have spent 30
years putting together guidelines to help new and advanced coaches, and
I haven't even come close to what you have done in the Tool Kit. It has more helpful
suggestions than anything I have seen for any level of coaching.
A
must have for any coach."
John
Gay Pitching Instructor
Vancouver, WA www.softballclinics.com "Pete
Sprenkle has definitely hit a home run with this book. Every
coach, regardless of the level of skills of the players, can find
valuable and practical resources in this material. The items
that Pete provides will allow you to do a better job of organizing and
managing the coaching process, resulting in more fun, more
wins, and more success as a coach and person
Bobby

Tifton, GA "When
I began reading A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit I wasn't sure what to
expect. I thought it would be for first time coaches only. It
definitely is not. It contains information and strategies we all can
use, no matter how many years you have coached. I highly recommend this
book to anyone that wants more knowledge in the game of
softball."
Jerry

Comets Gold 1990-91 AFA National Champions "The
new book, A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit, is an
invaluable tool for any softball coach at any age level. From the
rookie coach to the veteran, there is something for everyone to use.
The CD is a great idea. You can customize every form for your own
program and personalize everything easily. I would highly recommend
every coach to get a copy of this great reference."
Jay

think that this is the most complete book published on the starting of
a softball team, or program, or utilizing different sections of the
book for a very sophisticated program or coach. It is very easy to read
and understand. I will definitely use some of the ideas and I have been
coaching with the Buckaroos for 22 years. I endorse A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit and recommend it very
highly for individuals or teams involved in softball
programs."
Jerry
Brumit Ft. Collins, CO Buckaroos "I've
been coaching girls fast pitch for 18 years now and I can attest that
the Tool
Kit is everything you
advertise and more! Easy to read, very organized, and
professionally put together. It covers everything a coach needs, from
getting a team started, running the team, to the year-end
evaluation. The book itself is worth the cost. The CD with all the
motivational material, forms, and a complete players handbook is a BIG
bonus! By changing a few words my team has a complete player handbook
in a couple of hours that would take weeks to put together. Nicely done
Pete! Thanks - you saved me a lot of work."

"A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit has loads of
info that just has to be useful to anyone wanting to coach. Everything
is covered ... and then some. If there is a fault, it is that it is too
much to digest in one sitting. It must be done over a period of weeks,
if not years. This is an excellent book which cannot help but benefit
those who are willing to learn."
Dick

"The
Wheat Ridge Girls' Softball Association was fortunate enough to have
Pete Sprenkle present his Softball
Coaches Tool Kit to our coaches in a
clinic format. At first I though it would be too much for a
recreational coach, but I was totally wrong. Those coaches who use the Softball
Coaches Tool Kit are better organized,
run smarter practices and have players who are having more fun. This is
a wonderful tool for coaches at any level."

"I
have known Pete Sprenkle for 17 years, worked in some of his clinics
and observed his teams and organizations. Pete is one of the most
organized and thorough managers I have been associated with. He is a
producer of excellence, an individual who cares about kids and teams
and about doing things right and with class. That is what produced this
work and I would recommend it to every softball coach who wants to
continue to get better."
Jim

"A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit was a very rewarding
reading experience. I have been coaching for 15 years for competitive
travelling teams and a High School team and finished this book wiser
and armed with new ideas. In the 20 plus clinics I have attended, I
have never seen most of the drills, and when I tried them with my team,
they loved them and learned something. This is a book every coach
should invest in. GREAT job Pete !"
Larry
Becker, Head Coach Wasson High School
"There
is a lot of information that is needed by any organization. For any
that are new, this book could be invaluable. For those of us that are
still fairly new, an asset for my work with the teams. Those that have
been around a while that think there may be other ways than theirs out
there could find some interesting information. While I have spent many
a night trying to figure out what to do here or there, if I had the Tool
Kit, I would have gotten
much more sleep. I have leafed through it many times and stopped many
places. There is much I can use as is and much more I can fit into what
I already have. The players handbook items are much greater than I have
been using and now I have many more ideas to share with them in their
handbooks. "

"This
book is a MUST for anyone managing or coaching a girl's softball team.
Using these "Best Practices" will help you, the players, and their
families appreciate and enjoy their team experience."

"A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit was well received. Many
coaches felt it helped them get started, while experienced coaches
found helpful new techniques. Lots of great information that helped our
league win 3 of the 9 age level tournaments in Jefferson County
Recreation ball.Several new competitive teams are starting this year
and A
Softball Coaches Tool Kit is what they are using
to get started."
