Senior Cricket Training Sessions
Redwood, Christchurch, Canterbury
Get Involved: Senior Training
Players turn up ready for focused cricket practice aimed at Division 1 and 2 levels. The session starts with a warm-up before moving into structured net work where batters face targeted bowling and bowlers refine line, length and variations. Fielders rotate through catching drills and ground fielding exercises while coaches offer one-on-one feedback on technique and game awareness.
These sessions run weekly on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for club members. The format suits experienced adult players looking to sharpen skills ahead of weekend matches, with a mix of individual improvement and team coordination work. Youth and junior players occasionally join senior groups when invited by coaches.
