Cricket: Backfoot survival game (8 a-side)

Thanks to Sportplan and their coaching tips, I can now coach with...
Horatius, Cricket Coach

DESCRIPTION

Split your group into two teams, with the coach feeding the ball. There are two ways you can play this game:

1) All players have 4 feeds each.

Players are out after their 4 bowls or if they are caught out.

2) Players bat until they reach 20 points, at which point they retire. Players score a point every time the ball is played between the cones.

 

COACHING POINTS

To make the game more challenging and get players thinking carefully about how they play their defensive strokes players can also be caught out after the ball has bounced once.
