In the Easter Holidays, I went to South Northumberland Cricket Club's cricket camp. I am at the age where I play hardball cricket which is what the professional players play with. For hardball cricket, you have to put on a box, leg pads, helmet and gloves and of course your bat. We focused on our driving and getting over the top of the ball with our entire body.
On the second day, we focused on our pull shots which are great for leg spinners, and you pull the ball past your shoulder. There was lots of really kind people there too. I made lots of new friends and the coaches were really nice too.
On the third day we focused on balance and strength in our bowling by going on a wobbly pad. On the fourth day, we really focused on catching and run outs, and about deciding which end to throw it at and why.
On the last day, we did a huge game and focused on calling to run or not in batting. I really loved it and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to become a better cricketer.
