Following on from previous successes, Braintree Cricket Club will be running another two-day Cricket School again during the summer holidays.

This year’s event is on Thursday, August 27, and Friday, August 28, and is open to all girls and boys aged seven to 14.

All aspects of the game will be covered with players working alongside experienced ECB-qualified coaches to develop and enhance cricketing ability, with players grouped and coached according to ability and age.

The event will have an emphasis on having fun while learning and include competitions and prizes.

The cost is £39 for two days and £20 for one day.

The Cricket School will run on both days from 10am to 4pm at Braintree Cricket ground in St Peter’s Road, Braintree, but spaces will be limited so early booking is advised and the cutoff for applications is July 31.

Applications forms are available from the Braintree Cricket Ground or by contacting Iain Twinn at iaintwinn@rufflets.plus.com or on 01376 339963 or 07535 24165.
