The most surprising aspect of this project was the chance it provided to take a second or third look at the information on WebBall and decide what we could explain - and show - even better. The result is way more than the original game plan of some preprinted website pages. In developing original content for the field manual, we also created a ton of newer illustrations, and revamped many instructional approaches. While these new ideas may show up as part of the Team Player content on the website, this manual is the only way for coaches and players to get all of this info in one convenient package they can take to the field.
Build your team's power and speed with "Thunder & Lightning"
It's here - the most requested publication to be featured on WebBall in years. In answer to a growing demand to make the tips and techniques featured on our site available in hard copy, we've produced "Thunder & Lightning, the WebBall Field Manual for Run Production".
Compiled and edited by head coach Richard Todd, this spiral-bound book contains more than 150 pages, large format 8-1/2 x 11" size, on high quality, low show-through paper. It features not only the best of our website on hitting and base running, but many illustrations and ideas that have not yet found their way onto webball.com.
Designed as both a readable book and a reference guide, the fold-flat format allows you to plan your offense at home, plus take all the tips and strategies with you to practices and games.
