A team of four qualified coaches will take the players through a rigorous week of cricket and fitness training, which will be both educative and highly enjoyable. The course will be geared towards the individual needs of the players and will therefore be a valuable learning experience.

    • Bowling drills
    • Aerobic and anaerobic fitness
    • Strength training
    • Net sessions
    • Games
