What game will the players be playing in 10-20 years’ time?
And what should we be coaching now, to prepare players for the future?

Shortcut to success – part 3
The results are in from Australia – shorter pitches will be introduced for U11s & U13s, nationwide, starting from next season.
Good to see this is going ahead – time for the ECB to pick up another CA initiative?

Grooving that stroke…does music help?
Interesting net session yesterday, working with a batsman to get ready for the new season. Lots of work on grooving the bat path, a little on developing bat speed.
We were next to a group who had set up a (small) speaker in their net, and played music during their practice.

This could have been a distraction – we generally practice in a controlled (even slightly sterile) environment, where the only sounds are bat on ball, or ball on canvas, or occasionally the slap of skipping ropes and bouncing medballs – but I saw real benefits from having the music playing.
