Throwing Basics

Fielding is such an important part of modern day cricket
that it’s imperative that players of all ages are given the
opportunity for some quality practice. And the best way to get everyone
practicing is to make your drills fun and innovative, let the players learn through practice.

This section is split into two parts – throwing-based fielding drills, and catching based drills,
although some of the drills contain elements of both.

Major Coaching Point – THROWING:

In all of the throwing-based drills, try to encourage the players to line their feet up
at their target as much as possible. By this they need to plant their feet on the
ground, and draw an imaginary line from big toe to big toe, and if this line were
to continue on from their front leg, it should point towards the target they are
aiming for. (see diagram)
