Caught behind

A good wicketkeeper is critical to the success of any team. They need to be reliable, fit, skilful, tough and at times brilliant but this key position can often by occupied by the player who is, at times, a forgotten man at practice.  A good keeper can turn a game their team’s way with an outstanding catch, stumping or run-out and in order for a wicketkeeper to excel they must put in quality time and effort to work on all aspects of their game.

This intensive program is most suitable for aspiring wicketkeepers who have already had some experience in match play situations, covers all aspects of the art of wicketkeeping and leaves players feeling confident and ready for their best season behind the stumps.

Coached and designed by Mark Atkinson the program will run on Sundays August 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th 2pm-3.30pm  at St. Ignatius College, Riverview.

Please note that places are strictly limited.

Note: Please read our frequently asked questions before booking.
