This is a gameplan session: I would like you to look at the conditions, the scoreboard and the field set and work out your game plan for the following and list them: Boundary Options (Max of 3) Single Options (Max of 3) Defensive options (Max of 3) Please come armed with your options on the sheet provided. It should take you 2 minutes to come up with your gameplans. We will then monitor your gameplan adherence. It will be interesting to see how well you stick to your gameplan. We are looking at decision making and execution in this session. There are 2 points on offer for each delivery. You will play 1 over at a time. 12 points are on offer per over. You will recieve 1 point for choosing an appropriate option which sits within your game plan vs the ball you faced. You will recieve 1 point for every ball which you execute well as long as it sits within your gameplan.
Keep your gameplan simple and achieveable. Remember the scoreboard! The person who gets the most points in an over doesnt have to pack the hall away!
