The Cricket Academy
We are very excited to be running a Cricket Academy for the first time this summer. This will provide structured coaching for our youth with a great team of experienced coaches led by Jack Carty and Robyn Lewis. The academy will be run in conjunction with YMCA cricket club who have held their own highly successful academy for a number of years.
The academy will be available to all players at YMCA and Merrion aged 12-18. It is a great opportunity for our youth players to develop their cricket skills over the summer so make sure you book your places quickly. Details on how to book are set out below.
The Academy will take place on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings. There will be two sessions each day with players working in smaller groups to provide more focussed coaching.
