Grass root level training

Grass root level training

I am planning to train my 4 year old daughter as she shows some interest in Cricket. She is connecting and hitting the ball well (of course with bottom hand like an axe)when I throw the ball along through the ground. What are the things I can teach her in this early age?

Hi Kiren,

With someone that age, simply make it as much fun as possible, so she wants to do more without you setting the agenda. If you can get her interested then you could look at buying Luke Sellers book called "101 Youth Cricket Drills Age 7-11" which is a great place to start for young players.

You will have to get on here and let us know when she plays her first Test.

Good Luck.
