Hi, I have two boys aged 3 and 5 who are mad about cricket - do you have any fun games/lesson plans I can play with them and their friends? Thanks

Hi James,
It is vital at a young age to keep the drills simple and most importantly fun! Work on key fundamentals such as throwing, catching and being comfortable striking the ball cleanly. Here's a fun game you could start with!

Low Catching - Warm Up
DESCRIPTION
Players create a circle around a central stump, and line up with a partner on the opposite side of the circle. Players swap knee height catches with their partner, throwing the ball in the direction of the stump. Catcher should be ready to react if the ball clips the stump.
