The aim has been to make the books more accessible, and they are now packed with colour photos and illustrations, top tips and interesting facts. Each book contains everything you need to know about the sport or game, including equipment, rules, techniques and training tips. There's even information on how to find a club and meet new people to play the sport or game with. And having been written and endorsed by the game's professional body, you can be sure that you are getting the best information available.

    The book came exactly as described and packaged well. The shipping time was long but not unfair. I had some issues tracking but contacted the seller and they were responsive and accommodating. Great price and quality and I will be purchasing again if possible! Cheers!
