The weather can often stop you from training, but never fear again with this batting session - it can be used indoors or outdoors, whatever the weather!
To keep your players occupied and moving, this session gets your players working on their front and back foot batting inside a limited space (ideally in nets), ensuring everyone's active and safe while practising.
Small competitions, targets and a bit of fun rivalry will all help the session remain competitive and get your players working hard without even realising!
Additional Note:
It's important you stress the need for hard work and that batting becomes easier the harder you work. International cricketers often put in the hours practising with tennis balls as it's a great way of developing and grooving techniques.

Catches win matches remains cricket's truest saying. From high balls under lights to sharp slip catches, the ability to hold chances consistently separates winning teams from those that let matches slip away.
