Coaching Junior Cricket at Bashley:

 

 

We are working hard to develop strong links at Bashley (Rydal) CC between the Senior and Junior Club sections, because we are, at the end of the day, one club. We’ve been really thrilled over the last couple of years with the number of the Senior Bashley players who coach the juniors, and also with the number of older “juniors” who are also helping with the younger juniors and starting out on the coaching pathway.
We believe this strengthens the feeling of “being a club”, but also hugely benefits the junior cricketers with the enthusiasm of the seniors for the club, and puts “names to faces” for the juniors. We hope that this will increase the interest amongst the Junior section to come and watch some seniors in action, and support them in key matches such as T20 cup matches

So, to all those U9s and U11s who marvel at the amazing ‘tricks’ from the coaches during winter training….. did you know that most of them were once Bashley U9s and U11s themselves?

Here are some of them in action... See who you recognise……

                                                                                        

  

 

  

Some-one's first match ever !

( Clues : Josh, Simon, Ryan , Marcus & Tom..... not in that order !)

We are also delighted that 5 of our current U15s and U17s also completed a course for Young Leaders in Cricket in February, and have also been helping out with the Junior training.

So thank you so far to all our coaches and helpers, and we look forward to more fun with them all once the outdoor training starts next week......  (more details to follow)
