Description

Every coach needs a big orange playbook. This Big Orange Basketball Playbook is a blank book of court sketches, both full court and half court, a tool for coaches and parents to develop strategies and teach the game. Basketball is a game of skill and strategy. The difference between winning and losing is the players' conditioning and their ability to score and defend. But a team also needs a game plan--and a coach who can teach it. Few casual fans understand the myriad schemes and techniques useful to winning in this sport: screening, posting, making space, the many zone defenses, gap position, denial position, full court press, up tempo, pick-and-roll, continuity offense, motion offense, small ball, double team, four corners, triangle-and-two, etc. This notebook is an excellent way to sketch and teach such concepts. It can also be a stats book to record the team's (or the opponents') strengths and weaknesses, hits and misses. For those coaching younger players, this book is also helpful in teaching the fundamentals of the game (crayons may work best in that scenario). Of course, you can always use an electronic tablet or a white board, but nothing seems to beat paper and pen, especially when batteries die or when the dry erase pens dry out. The solution? This Big Orange Basketball Playbook--a notebook we think is as strategic and stimulating as the game itself.
