Book Description

This is a semi-fiction, true fantasy of the saga of two basketball players, a boy and a girl named Shelton and Maxwell. The book is based on the visual exploits of a fantastic player called Chuckie, whom I had the pleasure of watching play for five years. He was placed on the varsity squad in the eighth grade because of his ability to jump and shoot. I don’t remember if he was first string in the eighth grade or not. Chuckie is actually Choc in the book.

Book Description

The New York Times bestselling, authorized, “enormously entertaining and wide-ranging” (The Seattle Times) biography of the late, great Willie Mays. Willie Mays (1931–2024) was arguably the greatest player in baseball history, revered for the passion he brought to the game. He began as a teenager in the Negro Leagues, became a cult hero in New York, and was the headliner in Major League Baseball’s bold expansion to California. He was a blend of power, speed, and stylistic bravado that enraptured fans for more than two decades. Author James Hirsch reveals the man behind the player. Mays was a transcendent figure who received standing ovations in enemy stadiums and who, during the turbulent civil rights era, urged understanding and reconciliation. More than his records, his legacy is defined by the pure joy that he brought to fans and the loving memories that have been passed to future generations so they might know the magic and beauty of the game. With meticulous research and drawing on interviews with Mays himself as well as with close friends, family, and teammates, Hirsch presents a brilliant portrait of one of America’s most significant cultural icons.

Book Description

THE BLOCKER/MOVER OFFENSE PLAYBOOK The Blocker Mover offense was developed by Dick Bennett while at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay and then Washington State University. The Blocker/Mover offense later became more popularized recently by his son, head coach Tony Bennett while at the University of Virginia as they won a national championship primarily using the Blocker/Mover offense. The Blocker/Mover offense is a motion offense that has extensive screening and cutting that has players reading and reacting to how the defense is playing them. Players have defined roles; some are "blockers," and some are "movers." The Movers are primarily scorers. They play all over the court, from side to side and top to bottom. A mover looks for a "blocker" to get a screen, then uses the screen correctly, reads the defense and makes the right cut. The Blockers are smart team players who embrace their primary responsibility of setting good screens for movers. After screening, a blocker may set another screen, or in reading the defense, may shape up to the ball or slip the screen for a pass inside and a lay-up. You will learn all of the screener and mover concepts and details within our Blocker/Mover Playbook. In this book, you get 361 pages full of in-depth break downs of the Blocker/Mover offense that has transformed the Virginia program into a national powerhouse. You’ll get 2 different continuity motion offenses that you can run complete with 11 different entry plays to help disguise your actions to the defense.

Book Description

The uplifting New York Times bestseller by the legendary Willie Mays: “Will remind fans of why we love baseball so much.” —The New York Times In this “mix of memoir, self-help, and baseball history” (Booklist), Willie Mays shares the inspirations and influences responsible for guiding him on and off the field. Widely regarded as the greatest all-around player in history because of his unparalleled hitting, defense, and baserunning, the beloved Hall of Famer recounts his lifetime of experience meeting challenges with positivity, integrity, and triumph. Presented in 24 chapters to correspond with his universally recognized uniform number, Willie’s memoir provides more than the story of his major-league career. It tells of a man who values family and community, engages in charitable causes—especially those that help children—and follows a philosophy that encourages hope, hard work, and the pursuit of dreams. “Baseball fans of all ages and anyone seeking inspiration will enjoy memories and motivation shared in a warm, joyous manner by the irrepressible Say Hey Kid.”—Library Journal (starred review) “A salute to what the game used to be . . . back when it was a game played for the love of it, by guys who still lived in the neighborhood.” —New York Daily News Includes photos and a foreword by Bob Costas “I was very lucky when I was a child. My family took care of me and made sure I was in early at night. I didn’t get in trouble. My father made sure that I didn’t do the wrong thing. I’ve always had a special place in my heart for children and their well-being, and John Shea and I got the idea that we should do something for the kids and the fathers and the mothers, and that’s why this book is being published. We want to reach out to all generations and backgrounds. Hopefully, these stories and lessons will inspire people in a positive way.” —Willie Mays “It’s because of giants like Willie that someone like me could even think about running for president.” —Barack Obama
