Smarter Performance Cricket

We believe in a world where elite cricketers, men and women alike hit and throw for power as standard.

[Smarter Performance Cricket @Smarter_Cricket]

Teaching people to throw (and catch) are fundamental life skills. Skills that we believe all cricketers should have and be able to execute with confidence and consistency. Concepts like the 'T-Postion' or 'elbow must be as high or higher than the shoulder are plain wrong'.

@JenniJackson11 Congrats! What an honour and great to see you working with the team this year!

Using the ground and following through effectively after the throw.

This simple progression can help develop more athleticism and power in their throw and encourage them to follow through.

🎯 Throwing from the knees!!!!

🤔 What about a strong base??

❓️How many runouts do we see that come from athletic throwing positions & angles that aren't over the top, solid base etc?

💥We must practice and develop them all if we are to become well-rounded complete fielders.

[Smarter Performance Cricket @Smarter_Cricket]

Doing reverse throws outside - downside, if you don't have a wall, the reps take a little longer. The upside is the opportunity to auto-regulate intensity and the ability to track power (throw distance) over time.

If you don't already Reverse Throws are a must for winter nets!

Warming up to throw NOT throwing to warm up

It's a great idea to include some pushup variations & bear crawls before you throw to super charge the shoulder and core.

PS - it's a great way to sneak in some athletic development work into your sessions.
