What topics will be covered during this clinic?
We plan to teach participants about the rules and etiquette of cricket, as well as providing instruction on batting, bowling, and fielding. We believe it's important for kids to understand and appreciate the history and meaning of the game.
Why will the clinic be conducted using a taped cricket ball?
The taped ball is softer and less likely to cause injury than the standard hard cricket ball. Using it, we are able to play cricket and enjoy the essence of the game without wearing a helmet, pads, and other protective equipment.
