Synopsis by Elizabeth Smith

Coach John Wooden impressed many sports fans by helping UCLA win ten NCAA championships in his career. This basketball expert, once dubbed "The Wizard of Westwood," shares important techniques and practice skills with coaches and kids in this program. Though this tape is not designed to help coaches learn how to instruct an entire team of students, it does provide information about helpful drills and training exercises. Instilling a sense of pride as a team and other similar values are also emphasized.
