Recommended Books To Read
The following are books that I highly recommend to our players and parents: 

 

 

"Values Of The Game", by Bill Bradley

 
"No collection of players, no matter how good, can win unless they form a team. And no team can succeed unless it shares common values, among them courage, discipline, resilience, respect, and an unmitigated passion of the game." 
                                                                             - Bill Bradley 
 

 

 

 
"Leading With The Heart", by Mike Krzyzewski 
 
"Playing hard together, being the best defensive team, and players building strong bonds with one another, are shared goals that involve working together as a group over the entire year. If a team consistently concentrates on goals like that, major achievements happen."
                                                                            - Coach Krzyzewski
