It's been a long time since we've done a web site update! Here's what's going on:
We are six sessions into our Spring 2012 Youth Cricket Clinic. We've got a roster of 16 cricketers and have had great fun during the past several weeks. The weather has been quite favorable for us! We have three sessions left to round out this clinic: May 6, May 13, and May 20. Which brings us to the next item of news... Read more about Cricket Clinic News...

We had a lot of fun playing cricket this past weekend, though we were missing several of our cricketers! Because we didn't have a full group of players in either session, we played an exciting double-wicket match with four teams, each team batting for three overs.
In the Friday session, Smit and Tilak won with 25 runs. Tilak played especially well, scoring 15. Here are the results for each team: Read more about Cricket Clinic Update from Last Weekend...

It was hot this past weekend, but still a great weekend for cricket at the India House Youth Cricket Clinic.
After two weeks of focusing on making good batting decisions, this week we focused on the bowling action. Coach Mahendra and Coach Ranjit worked with each of the cricketers on the fundamentals of sound bowling technique, then we put that practice into action playing a friendly match.

This past weekend we worked on our bowling action with coaches Ranjit and Mahendra assisting the players with their technique. I'm posting links to several YouTube videos that will hopefully reinforce what we've learned.
Bob Woolmer was a cricketer for England in the 1970s and 1980s, then went on to a successful coaching career. He produced a series of videos that teach the proper technique for batting, bowling, and fielding. These three clips are from the "Bowling" course.

We started our 2011 Summer Youth Cricket Clinic on Friday, with 18 cricketers taking part. Each player practiced their batting for two overs, then worked on bowling and fielding. It was good to see everyone back out on the ground -- and especially nice to see new cricketers joining our group! Read more about First Weekend -- Heat, Ants, and Cricket!

We're almost ready to begin the Summer 2011 India House Youth Cricket Clinic!
We must admit -- when we announced the Spring Practices, we didn't expect the response that we received. We had nearly twice as many cricketers during our Spring session than any other time in the two years we've been conducting the clinic. As our clinic grows, we'll need to make some adjustments. Thank you for being so patient with us and for your continued patience. Read more about Summer 2011 India House Youth Cricket Clinic!
