Simple improvements to your existing offense or defense can reap huge benefits late in the season when other teams are getting stale and flat or other coaches have overloaded their teams with entirely new offenses or defenses. The author, Coach Kevin Sivils, learned the concepts included from coaching legends Dick Bennett and the late Don Meyer, utilizing all of these concepts with success for years as a varsity basketball coach, winning 479 career wins along with 8 Coach of the Year awards.
