I first read it from my local library and loved the elements of it so well that I bought a copy to keep and mark-up. This books orient a youth coach to what they need to be teaching and expecting of their players. You won't find drills and activities for any specific sport in this book but rather foundational principles of coaching, that is teaching youth how to honor the sport and the game, how to honor the rules and officials, and honoring your opponents and teammates. It shows you how to promote effort risk-taking and mistakes in the learning process, promote striving and improvement and mastery versus promoting outcomes. The first goal is coaching players to be winners, but the second goal, ultimately more important for the vast majority of our youth athletes, is coaching life lessons. If you are a youth coach, director of coaching in a volunteer organization, or the interested parent of a youth athlete, i would encourage you to buy it and read it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiring yet practical *by R***O on September 13, 2008* Many books on the subject of improving youth sports are written to create awareness of the importance of the subject, but say little of practical value on the way of doing this.Other books treat the 'how' comprehensively but are as dry as fossilized bones.The DGC avoids these two pitfalls admirably. It does a great job of describing and explaining the problems that youth sports programs have in the US (and in many other parts of the World), with such feeling, sensitivity and clarity that one cannot avoid being moved by the arguments.Jim Thompson goes further, though, the DGC translates ideals into practical measures to build exemplary youth sports programs.My organization is currently using the DGC as a blueprint to develop a soccer program in Mexico, and its lessons and arguments are as useful, relevant and potent here as they seem to be in the US, judging by the growth of The Positive Coaching Alliance. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another hit by Thompson *by K***D on September 25, 2003* This book covers some of the same topics as Thompson's classic, Positive Coaching. However, it has some new ideas in it, and also has some lessons learned since Positive Coaching was written. It also has a handbook-type approach - it gives you example talks, helps you plan a practice and also shows you ways to help you acquire Positive Coaching skills. I have found all of Jim Thompson's books enjoyable and enlightening. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Double-Goal Coach: Positive Coaching Tools for Honoring the Game and Developing Winners in Sports and Life (Harperresource Book) - The Power of Double-Goal Coaching: Developing Winners in Sports and Life - Positive Sports Parenting: How "Second-Goal" Parents Raise Winners in Life Through Sports --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/8573680-the-double-goal-coach-positive-coaching-tools-for-honoring-game](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/8573680-the-double-goal-coach-positive-coaching-tools-for-honoring-game) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
