 Great teaching video for caches and players July 11, 2005
Ray A. Gibson (Baltimore, MD)
John Wooden's video Teaching Kids Basketball is a great video for coaches and players. It gives good insight to one of the greatest coaches in modern times. My video starts out kinda choppy, and skips, but then it plays fine after that. Coach Wooden has both college players and young kids in the video. I've read quit a few basketball books, but I get the most out of videos. I like to watch them again and again to learn the coach's strategy. Coach Wooden's drills are good for any coach to use during their practices. He's an excellent fundamentals coach. It's a pretty long tape 70 min in length.
Great choice for coaches September 24, 2000

Many coaches today can gain a wealth of information from what Coach Wooden has to offer. Too many times have coaches gone in search of the "perfect" video. This video may not have all the drills you want or all the concepts of the game. It has something to offer that many others can't, Coach John Wooden's awesome perspective on the game of basketball. Excellent choice for a coach.

I think that the majority of kids out there get poor instruction from fathers or, most likely, get no instruction at all. Any coach out there that complains that this tape shows a drill and yet that does'nt help him because he doesn't know what to do with "the other eight kids" is not going to get anything out of this tape. Fact is, that you must have some basic knowledge of coaching and running practices for this tape to be truly effective; or you should see it as a way to indoctrinate good fundamentals (more importantly, good thinking and philosopy: "The two most important things in life are Love and Balance.") with your child. This is not a tape that will tell you how to coach a whole team. Having coached through the high school ranks, I can tell you that Coach Wooden is closer to the heart of effective basketball than just about any person that has ever lived. He did, after all, win 10 national titles. Although I'll take Wooden pearls of wisdon where I can, I wish he had done a tape for Coaches at higher levels. I wish he had "talked" more and shown us how he organized practices or taught his high post offense. That is the gold. Alas, although the man is sharp as a tack, he is today 90 years old. This will have to serve as the only recorded evidence of a genius at his pallet, the basketball court. It leaves me wanting more of him.
 Falls Short For Kids Training Film - May Help New Coaches August 26, 1999
13 out of 16 found this review helpful
Not helpful as a kids training aid. Uses college players instead of kids to demonstrate skills. Kids can't relate to adults learning fundamentals. Also, too much talking. Great for a new coach who wants to see the correct way a skill should be applied or helpful tricks of the trade such as the protecting hand to defend against a cross over dribble.
Excellent Video on Basketball Fundamentals January 10, 1999
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Excellent instructional video on basketball fundamental presented by Coach Wooden. Having played college basketball and coached, this video is a must for teaching basketball fundamentals. This video demonstrates the key to teaching basketball: Balance and Fundamentals. In addition, Coach Wooden's Book - Practical Modern Basketball is an excellent book - considered the bible for basketball coaching.
