Individual Coaching – October Holidays

In preparation for the new season, Taught and Bowled will be offering individual coaching during the October school holidays. If you would like to do some fine tuning or to build confidence leading into the cricket season then some one-on-one attention is perfect to focus on specific areas of your game.

This program is offered in a 4-day block during the October school holidays from Tuesday October 10 to Friday October 13. The block includes 3 x individual coaching sessions that can focus on batting, bowling, wicket keeping or a combination. Session times are available between 1:00pm and 4:00pm each day. The fourth day will involve a competition net session where players can put what they have learned during the week into practice.

Cricket Camps

Taught and Bowled is offering cricket camps during the October and summer school holidays.

Each camp runs for three mornings and will be held at Parkinson Oval, Kensington Gardens Reserve. The camps are a great way to improve your skills, to have fun and to get your cricket fix during the school holidays. The camps are open to cricketers 8-11 years of age and are ideal for a young cricketer who is playing school or club cricket.

There are three camps available –  in October, December or January. Sessions will run from 8:30am until 11:30am each day. The third day of each camp is our ‘Match Day’ where players will get to play games of cricket against each other.

The club is excited to announce that Ben Johnswood has been appointed Junior Head Coach. Ben has worked with The Academy & Juniors for many years but has always had to juggle senior cricket commitments. This year he is able to concentrate on our Junior & Academy cricket alone.

Join us at the Kensi Clubrooms for our delayed Junior Awards from last season and have a BBQ & drink to celebrate the start of season 20 / 21.
