Wicket Keepers Klub

Wicket Keepers are all too often forgotten when it comes to practice and training. It is one of the most important positions on the field, occupied by athletic, enthusiastic, energetic characters, who help the captain, the bowlers and keep everything going. Wrongly, you guys are thought to be there to stop the ball and catch it during training sessions, then perform miracles behind the stumps on a match day, having not worked on the very specific skills required to be the best. Now you can with this series of specialist coaching sessions for wicket keepers.

Keepers Klub continues in 2018/19. We are pleased that Peter Hunt has agreed to continue to run these important sessions assisted by Robyn Edge, Charlotte Smith and Harvey Lake. Sessions will be held at Taverham Hall this year.

The players will work hard on the skills required to be the best. They will look at all aspects of stance, taking the ball, both standing up and back, the 'K' position, diving, watching the ball, glove position and much more. In 2018/9 the skills continue, working on fitness, core basics, run outs and continued work on the skills needed. New keepers are always welcome, whatever age or ability.
