Successful Girls Coaching Course at Saffron Walden

During the school half term Saffron Walden Youth Academy together with Essex County Cricket Board Cricket Development department ran a two day coaching session for girls at the Anglo American Memorial ground in Saffron Walden. 19 girls of varying ages attended and were coached by coaches from the E.C.C.B.

On the second day of the course Charlotte Edwards, the England Ladies Vice Captain, attended with a team of U13 aged girls from Huntingdonshire to play an Essex U12 side.

Charlotte presented certificates to all of the girls attending the course, signed autographs and had photographs taken with the girls. During the match, that Essex won, a number of the girls who attended the two day course were given the opportunity to field for a number of overs.

  Spirit of the Game
   
  "Cricket is a game that owes much of its unique appeal to the fact that it should be played not only within the Laws, but also within the Spirit of the Game. Any action which is seen to abuse this spirit causes injury to game itself."
