Players will get into pairs and will stand opposite each other. they will have attempts to bowl the leg spin technque after the demo and use the coaching points given. The aim is to try and bowl the ball to their partner and try and get the spin on the ball. Then the partner will repeat until the game gets progressed. The progression will be adding wickets instead of bowling to your partner and you will be on your own. thhere will be a target box which you will attempt to aim for. Final progression will be the same but without a target to aim for and a batter who will be blocking the shot. the ball will start with a tennis ball and progress to a cricket ball. every player gets 6 attempts and then will rotate. this will be repeated so everyone has 3 overs to bowl.
