Book Reviews of When the Game Stands Tall: The Story of the De La Salle Spartans and Football's Longest Winning Streak
Book Review: Excellent insight to motivation
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought this book was excellent. Not only is the story of such a remarkable winning streak noteworthy in itself, the story of Coach Bob Ladoceur will change many people's view of the nature of a winning coach. It appears that he and his staff really do care more about their players than about the game and, certainly, The Streak. I learned some key things about what makes high school boys tick and what makes teams accomplish more than they believe they can.
