Fielding practice.2



Confidence  is a great asset in fielding, and much  harm can be done if  in the early  stages hands are bruised  and the cricket  ball  becomes an object  of dread rather  than  a focus of  enjoyment. For  that reason, especially at  the start of the  season  before  hands  have  hardened, or on cold days, the  coach  should , if possible , use  old and podgy balls and  be  careful not to hit  too  hard. Even  tennis  balls  or  other  soft  balls  should  not  be  ruled  out  for  quite  young  boys, for  the  technique of  judging  and positioning can be  learnt as well  with  them  as  with  a  match  ball.
