Match practice

Under 14 and above · Weekend mornings · Ask the academy

Weekend games with umpires, a scorebook, and roles that match a real match.

Match practice is a game, not a drill with cones. Players bat, bowl, and field in the order a coach sets, and the score is kept.

What to expect

A named umpire and a scorer from the group
Overs and a target small enough to finish in the morning
A five-minute talk afterwards: one thing that worked, one thing to take to the nets

Send the player age group and we will say which batch fits.
