Improving players' stump throwing accuracy

This Sportplan session works on improving your players' throwing accuracy, particularly when throwing to hit the stumps and put down the wicket!

Designed for groups large and small, this session works on more than simply getting players to strike the stumps with the ball for a run out - it also aims to develop and improve players' overarm throwing technique, improving consistency and confidence to ensure the ball reaches its intended target - whether that target be the stumps or a team-mate!

By practising these throwing exercises in training you can help players to remain focused, and not panic, when looking for the run out!

To get this session off to a flying start we start with a pairs throwing exercise, getting players to focus on their technique (strong throwing base, front arm aiming at the target and holding the ball along the seam) before introducing the stumps - starting with a low pressure throwing exercise and gradually increasing the intensity to truly test your players' throwing accuracy!
