Author of "The I Formation: A Journal for Tennis, Goals & Life", Coach McCain describes both to the layman and the expert the intricacies of playing and coaching. In every stroke, certain things must happen for it to be a technically sound shot - things that all the pros have in common. These main ingredients are offered in easy to understand terminology with photos to help the reader visualize. The psychology of the game and the science of success across a range of fields is examined as Coach McCain puts a microscope on how players become great. As a former manager of player development for the USTA, a coach on the ATP and WTA pro tours, a Division 1 college coach, a Director of a high performance tennis academy, and having worked with dozens of other USTA and ATP Tour coaches over the years, his students have gone on to play in the grand slams. They have also received top college scholarships and achieved the highest national and international rankings. A lifetime of knowledge is offered here to the reader in this book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 8 x 0.35 x 10 inches | | Isbn 10 | 1463753578 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1463753573 | | Item Weight | 14.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print Length | 154 pages | | Publication Date | July 23, 2011 | | Publisher | CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | ## Images ![Building a Champion: The Fundamentals of Playing & Coaching Tennis - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41WQYE8gE8L.jpg) ![Building a Champion: The Fundamentals of Playing & Coaching Tennis - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31nOEKSYprL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Building a champion review *by on Reviewed in the United States October 20, 2011* Building a champion is a must read for any serious players and coaches. I haven't read a book about tennis that covers so many areas (technique, strategy, point construction, psychology of the game for coaches and players, and environmental factors for building a champion) and also be so thorough with the information. Being a former player myself, I can attest that Daniel has played at a very high level. After reading this book it is clear that his coaching and knowledge of the game is top notch also. A book that covers the ins and outs of coaching and playing ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Building a Champion *by on Reviewed in the United States November 25, 2011* Building a Champion is beyond great its all you need when it comes to a winning formula. I could not put it down. Coach McCains in depth coverage of the game of tennis is right on!!!! He has the experience to introduce areas of the game and strokes development to elevate all players as well as compete at very high levels. Very easy to understand with indepth pictures of the pros and examples to help us cover it on our own. A must have for the serious tennis player and coaches. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The content was excellent.
