Planning practices is easy with the Wrestling Drill Book! The 169 wrestling drills develop basic skills while adding variety and fun to your practice sessions. The Wrestling Drill Book is an invaluable reference for coaches and teachers at the peewee, junior high, senior high, and college levels.

The Wrestling Drill Book emphasizes development of the seven basic skills identified by USA Wrestling: position, motion, level change, penetration, backstep, lifting, and back arch. Each drill identifies the basic skills involved to show you its benefits at a glance. All of the drills are designed to prepare wrestlers for actual match situations they're sure to encounter. And the Wrestling Drill Book features a unique drill-finder index that itemizes drills by area of emphasis to give you a wealth of ideas for building specific skills.

Plus, the games included, such as Mat Chess and Sumo Wrestling, help make practices fun--a strategy essential for keeping wrestlers motivated and interested.

Each drill is fully illustrated to make teaching fast and easy, no matter what level you coach. In addition, for each drill and game you'll find a description that includes

- appropriate skill level,
- purpose,
- basic skills used,
- prerequisites for performance,
- procedures involved,
- coaching points, and
- safety concerns where necessary.

Every coach, teacher, and camp director will want a copy of the Wrestling Drill Book. It's the perfect guide for teaching and perfecting wrestling skills in a fun and interesting way.
