This course will not teach you how to score – we know you can do that.
This course is about experiencing cricket outside of your comfort zone and discussions are based on the changes in mindset required to score for someone you do not know, in a place you haven’t been to for people you don’t know, and potentially with new fixture types and completely different regulations than the usual league cricket regulations we are all used to.
