It would be an unusual kid who would enjoy Jack's tape,but I would like to have a team full of this kind of kid.

Tom-
You got me this time! I don't think any of these tapes are 'prime time viewing' for kids. My kids did watch the tapes with me, but they aren't into the theory as much as I am and weren't totally riveted.
Your point is well taken.
These websites and related tapes, etc. are for coaches and parents to understand what is going on, not to teach the kids directly.
