Easter Cricket Camp: Monday 12^th to Thursday 15^th April:

We are delighted to partner up with Institute for Cricket who will be delivering a four-day performance Cricket course at TTCC. With so much cricket being lost this year due to the pandemic, The Institute of Cricket are here to help fast track your learning and preparation, giving you that extra edge towards achieving your desired goals in 2021. Targeting the ages of 13 -19. The camp will culminate in every player participating in a specific middle practice, developing strategies for coping with different game scenarios, a hugely valuable tool for every player’s pre-season preparations. The course is £249 for the four days or £75 daily. The Link to sign here https://www.instituteofcricket.com/upcoming-events-2021/  spaces are limited and will be made available to other clubs too, so book early to avoid disappointment. This course will take place in the hard lane nets between 9am and 4pm on those days during which time they will not be available for members to book independently. Members can book the hard lane nets during these days after 4:30pm
