Split your group into two teams, with the coach feeding the ball. There are two ways you can play this game:
1) All players have 4 feeds each.
Players are out after their 4 bowls or if they are caught out.
2) Players bat until they reach 20 points, at which point they retire. Players score a point every time the ball is played between the cones.
To make the game more challenging and get players thinking carefully about how they play their defensive strokes players can also be caught out after the ball has bounced once.

The covers are on and the last tea has been served. What your club does between now and April decides how the next season starts. Here is a simple, honest winter plan for players, bowlers and juniors.
August is when seasons are decided, and most club games are lost chasing rather than setting. Give your batters a framework for the chase and you win the close ones.
