Looks like we’ve taken over the M6 @Wrexham_AFC ! Coaches, mini busses and cars aplenty - wouldn’t be surprised to see someone on their bike at this rate.. COYR!!
I’m watching our PLAYERS MOP THE FIELD to continue the game. I’ve never seen anything like it. Official statement from the Co-chairman: “We need to get out of this fucking league.” @Wrexham_AFC
A whole session dedicated to spin, utilising spin mats, fielding and bowling machines. Each net concentrates on specific scenarios, utilising both front and back foot shots. A very challenging session in developing spin playing skill sets @CricketShrops#cricket#spin#excellence
A very warm welcome to the Academy to Shropshire U13 player Hamza Bhatti. Exciting to see such a promising young leg spinner join the ranks and we look forward to working with him this winter and the 2020 season @CricketShrops#cricket#development#future#Academy
This is a great drill for improving many aspects of batting, including bat path and grip, as demonstrated by Ed Bushnell. Look’s simple enough but very unforgiving on any flaws in technique! @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod#cricket#batting#technique#academy
Two more Academy recruits have joined the ranks, with brothers Hugh and Henry Morris signing for Wellington CC. Welcome lad’s and we’re really looking forward to seeing you both progress and reap the rewards next summer! @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod#cricketnews#academy
Time to get rid of any post season rustiness with a gentle 77mph net session with the bowling machine. First clip is Matty Lamb working on his back foot shots - it will get a bit more difficult next week!! @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod@Kioc_cricket#cricket#academy#excellence
First Academy training session of the winter with most of 2019’s cohort resplendent in the new Clenviro sponsored kit. There’s a lot of hard work in store for these guys over the 18 week programme but all are raring to go @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod#academy#cricket#excellence
Peak performance is as much about mental approach as it is skill. Each Academy player development pack includes this excellent book by Martyn Court, which gives an invaluable insight into the winning mentality so important in elite sport @CricketShrops
#cricket#winners
Each Academy player’s development pack contains their video analysis folder, self assessment record sheets and of course the Academy training top. Watch out for another special addition in the next couple of days

A week until the first Academy session of the winter and thanks to @JwcaJwcricket we’re well covered for the power hitting and white ball practice, which will be so important for some of this year’s cohort @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod@ShropCCLeague#cricket#Academy#excellence
Academy coach Norman Ross in the thick of the action at @Kioc_cricket in Bangalore. The centre attracts thousands of youngsters a year from the city and Academy players will be there next April to work on skills such as batting against spin @CricketShrops#cricket#India#skill
An example of a player analysis from our visit to @Quintic_Sports Each Academy player will refer to their own video and see the data that underpins their analysis, measuring improvements one step at a time @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod@ShropCCLeague#cricket#academy#excellence
Latest developments in @Quintic_Sports biomechanics software being explained to Academy coaches and @Kioc_cricket at their offices in Birmingham. Exciting stuff which will have huge benefits for all Academy players this winter and beyond @CricketShrops@CowCornerPod#cricket
Ashwani Gaat from KIOC in Bangalore is with us for a few days to help plan our winter academy programs, starting in November. Our visit to KIOC at Easter is also being planned as well as further developing our partnership with @Kioc_cricket@CricketShrops#academy#indiancricket
Developing the skills to play spin effectively can be difficult in a net situation. Through in a @ZingoSports spin mat and it’s a whole different story!
Thanks for a great bit of kit that pushes the batsman completely out of his comfort zone @CricketShrops#cricket#excellence
