Basketball Drills Secrets Of The Zone
By Jimmy Cox
Writer Glen C. Brown author of `Secrets Of The Zone Press` writes from this extraordinary coaching and basketball skilled book.

`In the writing of a text on a coaching system for a major competitive sport, the author is immediately under suspicion that he has withheld his own `secret formula` for success.

So a coach, player or basketball fan who takes a serious interest in the game that was originated and has been perfected in the United States may greet this volume with some trepidation.

Such was my first reaction when asked by Glenn Brown to write an introduction to this volume on the art of basketball coaching.

This man has been a prep and college player, head coach of an outstanding U. S. Army team, coach at an Illinois high school of more than 2,000, coach at an Indiana high school with the largest high school field house in the world that seats 10,000. He is now a successful college coach and is far from leaving his chosen profession any time soon.

Likewise, he hasn`t changed his system or dropped it so he is willing to reveal the system he has been using all this time.

Here, the man who has compiled a 229-115 all-time basketball record as a coach of every age and type of player, has `bared` his basketball soul.

Most books of this type are highly technical, but Brown has, through careful diagrams and simple explanations, treated each phase of the game with simplicity.`

And what a book it is! Whether you are a coach, player or simply interested in basketball, this book is an absolute must have! There is not another more detailed script of game in any book on the planet! It is foundational, it is creative and genius! Yes, basketball players must be creative and genius in using feet, hands and brains! Please, don`t even question it!

If that isn`t exciting enough, then think of your `child` or `grandchild` receiving the book and excelling in an all time favorite sport! I love basketball, both playing and watching, but I especially enjoy learning about it and this book is a golden treasure for anyone to own!

Buying An Indoor Basketball Hoop
By Brian Bailey
When deciding on an indoor basketball hoop you first have to decide where it is going to be installed. If the hoop will be installed on the wall it should be one that has an opaque backboard. Transparent blackboards tend to merge with the way which causes problems for the players. Width of the backboard is also a consideration. With a wider backboard it helps to allow the players to hit a wider array of bank shots.

You should also pay attention to the way the hoop is attached to the backboard. Hoops can be attached with a single piece of metal or they can have a spring-loaded break away piece. The breakaway is mostly preferred by players who want to dunk or hang on the rim.

Indoor hoops should be installed where a court can be painted. If the space is too small to paint a full court then a half- court or even a free throw line should be painted beneath the hoop. Having an indoor hoop without a throw line will be useless.

Most indoor hoops can be mounted to the center of the hall. Such fixtures provide more moving space for the basketball players who can run around the pole after dunking or scoring points. There is also less danger of the player crashing into a wall while throwing a ball on the run or leaping to score a point in a position that is close to the hoop.

Both in-ground hoops and portable hoops can be considered to mount an indoor hoop. The biggest problem with an in-ground hoop is that it is a permanent structure. The floor will have to be broken and plastered again if you need to remove the hoop or relocate it. On the other hand, a portable system can be moved when need and positions changed if need be. Clearly your decision will be based on your needs and how permanent a structure you need.
