FORMAT:


We are unlike other camps in that we embrace the building of relationships and friendships across the age groups and ensuring that here is plenty of competitive cricket that can be enjoyed by all the participants. Younger boys and girls can be handicapped relating to their ability so everyone has a role to play!
Mornings take the form of rounds of continuous or quick cricket followed by a pre-lunch 10/10 taped ball match then there are further ‘Test’ matches in the afternoon, both 10/10 and 5/5.
Some boys have taken to playing their own brand of golf in the lunch break, which is also great fun.
If numbers are high, we normally select four balanced teams who compete in a round robin tournament.
The winning captain on the day, provided he can catch it, is awarded a bag of sweets for him and his teammates!
There is no hard ball cricket at our camps, but it is worth remembering many of the worlds top players - particularly from the sub-continent - played taped ball cricket through their formative years.

ONE-TO-ONES AT SHEEN  

Sheen Common, Opposite 3 Fife Road, East Sheen, SW14 7EW

Boys and girls from 6-15 years old.


If you are interested in booking 1-1 batting coaching for your child(ren), we operate a year-round schedule, outdoor, at the Sheen nets.

Days vary throughout the year, with weekends being the key focus of activity.

In the winter season, sessions take place between 10am and 2pm on a Saturday and Sunday, weather permitting, while in the summer they run on a Sunday from 10am-3pm. With sufficient demand, they can also run in the afternoons of Easter and Summer camps.

Each session is an hour long, with use of a Bola County bowling machine.  

Tony Bradshaw is the lead coach and historically has received support from former Middlesex cricketer Ali Fraser and Kent opener Ben Compton and this year, former Surrey and England bat, Monte Lynch.

If you would like to be included in the programme, please contact Tony at: tonybradesteros@gmail.com

We can also offer bowling coaching but to fully develop these skills we would strongly advise you get in touch with renowned coach Scott Moody – a student of the late and great Terry Jenner. Contact him at scott@betterbowling.co.uk for further information.
