Thanks to the support of the Devon Youth Cricket Foundation England Nottinghamshire and Devon’s Chris Read gave a free wicket keeping master class to 45 coaches, keepers and people involved in Devon cricket at the Sir Christopher Ondaatje Indoor Cricket Centre on Sunday 28th October 2012. Using four County young players, two girls and two boys, he went through the techniques of standing back, one handed catching, the three types of dive, standing up and finished on keeping in the modern one day game. He passed on a wealth of tips and ideas to be taken back to clubs and schools, subject of course to them being appropriate for the young players involved, he had learned from his vast experience as one of the top keepers in World cricket and from the great Alan Knott, Rodney March, Ian Healy, Jack Russell, Bruce French, Steven Rhodes and others overs the years.
A more detailed Coaches’ ENewsletter will be published and available to down load later in the Year. Our sincere thank to Chris for giving of his time and to the Cricket Foundation for making it possible. |
