I know it seems pretty much mandatory (can't think of another word :P ) but after years of bowling to left handers, I have that problem a lot.Neil Pickup said:After two long and increasingly painful hours of net practice this morning, I can now swing the thing both ways (and more than anyone else who was bowling, according to one guy who was batting).
However, I have a huge problem with accuracy, everything is down leg. Managed to bowl someone off stump with a rather nice inswinger from around the wicket, though
Practice will make almost-competent, eventually...
I know it takes time but cross your arm over your body a bit if going over to get to off side.
Try get line before speed as well.

The problem is finding the time - I've had exactly that problem for years. Just don't have the time to practice.Neil Pickup said:After two long and increasingly painful hours of net practice this morning, I can now swing the thing both ways (and more than anyone else who was bowling, according to one guy who was batting).

If you can bowl inswing to order (
) you can teach me. I tend to bowl inswingers by accident.

neil,
sorry to dig up this older thread, but I am interested in the coaching thing.
How does one go about taking the various levels of the coaching qualifications,and how much time is required to do the various levels,...and probably more importantly..how much does it cost?
i have wanted to get into that side of things for a while.
cheers

The cost of getting into the various courses varies between county boards.
Level I at present is a four-day course, costing £60-90, resulting in a very basic technical assessment and multi-choice paper, before taking a group of 6-8 U11s for a fifteen minute "group coaching" session. Anyone can pass Level I.
There's usually 3/4 run in a county per year on a regional basis(speaking from experience in Devon & Lincs - ie Plymouth/Exeter and Grimsby/Lincoln/Stamford).
It will change drastically very soon - a lot, lot more continuous assessment and practical experience will come in and it will be much harder to pass - I recommened you do one before too long because this will change within the next 6/12 months at the most.
Level II is much more theory based and indepth. It involves more advanced technical models, theory on sports science and a lot of video analysis with an assessed net with County U13/14 juniors. It's a 6-day course and will cost £90-150.
