Written for fast-pitch softball coaches and players of both genders and ages, this book is like no other softball book currently on the market. While other softball books focus merely on the broad "how-tos" of the game, Smitty's book looks at the details that transform strong skills into great plays and good players into great team members. From discussions on making the most of practice and preseason through the ups and downs of the season to the best way to approach post-season tournaments, Smitty's insights and tips will help any coach or player maximize their team's performance.
