The first week is aimed at our younger age groups (Tinis and Minis), but there's no reason why our older players can't have a go and develop the ideas in the session to be more challenging.

If you have any brothers and sisters, get them involved too and of course, Mums and Dads should be trying to keep up with you as well!

Week 1
Our very own Jo Herbertson was one of the coaches on a recent 'Chance to Shine' Cricket Taster Session, so we thought this would be the perfect way to ease you into the challenges.

In the coming weeks, you'll hear from some of our other coaches with more exercises and drills to keep you sharp and working on your skills while we're all in lockdown.

The first video is 45 mins long and has three different activities for you. These can be completed indoors (or outside for some fresh air!) and you'll need to find the following to take part:

Something to strike with (for example, a bat, a frying pan or a hardback book)
A ball or a rolled up pair of socks
A target (for example, a set of cricket stumps, a rubbish bin, or three empty water bottles)

Strength and Conditioning

We're currently looking at introducing some additional sessions to help our players stay fit and active during lockdown.

We were looking to run on winter training from Jan-Mar for 12 weeks but that's now looking like four weeks in March at best. There is of course a real possibility too we won't be able to undertake any winter training.

So instead, we're thinking of getting a S&C coach for weekly virtual sessions. Players (and parents!) would be able to sign up and take the classes. More information to follow.

We hope you're all staying healthy and safe.
