There are many better and more important things to put into a players manual, but one of the most original and interesting things I have seen in a manual was they took the top 10 football teams in their division and put a page in the manual for each one. It had some articles and some facts about each top team - the coach talked about each one and what made them successful.

I've always had a copy of "The True Gentleman" in mine. Also place any school/athletic department policies in int as well.
I like the idea of each opponent having a page. That would take some work, but its really good.

the true gentleman.....i know where that comes from......... p.a.
never been a fan of manuals though......i always seem to find manuals and playbooks in the bottom of lockers and on the floors......no tellin the thousands of miles i've run children for leaving 'em out......
IF i did one again.....i would include the parents role and a place for the parents to sign so they understand exactly what the rules and expectations are........
no excuses then...
good luck
f.k.

We'll be doing a player's manual next year, as much for the coaches and parents as the kids. The two things we're going to stress are expectations and procedures. This way the kids AND parents (these will be handed out at the parents meeting) know what they're expected to do and how to do it.

Buy Jim Tressel's book "The Winner's Manual To Life." The entire book is devoted to the info that he puts in his player's manuals.
