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!
The covers are on and the last tea has been served. What your club does between now and April decides how the next season starts. Here is a simple, honest winter plan for players, bowlers and juniors.
August is when seasons are decided, and most club games are lost chasing rather than setting. Give your batters a framework for the chase and you win the close ones.
Green July pitches and a shiny Dukes mean the ball is talking. Here is how to coach your batters to survive the moving ball, trust their defence, and cash in once the shine has gone.
