. Buffs "Another awesome book from Dan Blank! My defenders are now getting "Shutout Pizza" to devour...both the book and hopefully lots of pizza this year!" Bikerby "Very good read, with useful information that is simple to follow and understand. Very catchy, memorable descriptions that stick with you, and will stick with your players." Darren WARNING: This is not a goalkeeping book.
From the best-selling author of the Soccer iQ series comes a book dedicated to teaching and organizing a back four. Coach Dan Blank led the Southeastern Conference's best defense at two different universities in consecutive years. It began with a handbook he created for his defenders that ensured everyone was on the same page. Shutout Pizza is a vastly expanded version of that handbook. It introduces the governing principles that guided the SEC's best defenses, and covers a broad spectrum of scenarios that commonly occur during matches. Shutout Pizza is packed with diagrams that will help the reader visualize the concepts discussed in the text, and includes several of most effective drills for training these concepts. This is an excellent book for coaches and players who want to defend more effectively. "Defending Made Simple. The concepts in this book are presented in such an easy to understand and teachable manner that I am embarrassed at the large number I have failed to teach my teams over the years. This book (and Dan's others) will change your team dramatically for the better." .Mark L "If you are sincerely into coaching soccer this is a must have book to add to your collection. Focus is on defending and organizing your backs as a unit, great ideas and methods to keep them a tight unit. Coach Blank put a lot of thought into this book and even more thought into defending." Jeffrey Vagell "Another great reference from Dan Blank. Practical advice for players and coaches on defending individually and as a team. Simple, easy to apply lessons in every day language with great examples and diagrams. Distills the topic down to key concepts. Like all his books, I use this one every week in coaching my team." B.
