Coaching news 

Group CoachingSeniors Coaching

Yesterday we held our last session of this series of group lessons. The topic was pitching from 30 to 100 yards. We covered all the main points of trying to control the ball, through to getting into a better impact position. 

The group all made huge improvements with their pitching technique as they started to synchronise the movement better through using more body rotation. 

Congratulations to Iain Gilmour who won the competition for the best pitch from 80 yards. Thank you to all the seniors who attended these sessions during the past couple of months.

Tuesday morning 10am -11am 
Tuesday lunchtime 1pm - 2pm
