In this fielding session we focus on the most popular form of spin in cricket - off-spin bowling - as we aim to increase your bowlers' confidence and skill when using this popular technique.
This session gets everyone involved, having fun and learning, and can be used with groups of all sizes, as an introduction to the off-spin bowl or with more experienced players as a way of continuing to improve their technique.
What's in the Session?
