Thanks to Sportplan and their coaching tips, I can now coach with greater confidence and enthusiasm.
Good day im coaching cricket for 10year old boys,they can only ball 3balls then they tired,any drills i can teach them,i really want them to do well
How can i introduce cricket batting and bowling techniques to juniors and beginners aged 6-9?? Whilst still making it fun so that they enjoy it. Too many of the kids I teach still throw when they bowl and play across the line when they bat!
we are hosting a 2day cricket clinic for children age 8-14years old.any aids drills and idees would be appreciated.
I have got to run a 'TGFU' (teaching games for understanding)cricket session for my degree next week, which basically means i need to run a modified cricket session? I want something a bit different from the normal games such as continious cricket or the lords game?
What is a good game / drill to have setup at the start of a session so players can join in when they arrive (players arriving in drive/drabs/different times)? we usually have the cricket hockey game but can get a bit messy when no bibs etc.

I ran a coaching session on Sunday where I took along a number of handwritten cards, from which the kids (U11s) could randomly choose "Super Over", "Bowl Off" or "Game Scenario". If they chose the latter, I had another set of cards they could choose from "Wicket Target", "Run Target", "Run Target - but boundaries don't count".Finally, they then draw from some more cards - runs (20-30), max wickets (1-3), overs (3-5).Each game scenario lasted around 10-20 mins, so in our session, we had time for about 4 or 5 scenarios. They appeared to enjoy it, but most of them said they wanted to bowl/bat individually for longer! Kids, eh?The idea behind these if to get them thinking about batting intelligently - rotating the strike, keeping the score ticking over, managing achievable run rates, etc. It's also a chance to give some of them some experience at captaining and having to make key decisions (bowling and batting order, how to place a field for different scenarios).Any ideas for variations I could try would be welcome. My session lasts for 2 hours including warm ups and any specific exercises I want to do beforehand.
How did the Modern Olympics originally begin and why are they so culturally significant today?
