The camp syllabus included competitive matches, batting awareness and tactics, bowling basics and running between the wickets. Rose Simmons captured an award for “Best all round performance in the hard ball cricket game.” This was Rose’s first game with the hard ball.
In addition to the camp the girls have already had 2 intensive high performance sessions with specialist girls coach Halima Khan. Coach Khan stated, “The girls have come on hugely over the last few days and have a real thirst to learn and develop as individuals and for the team. BCB are providing a great opportunity for the girls to gain valuable knowledge and experience of cricket cross country which is a real testament to the commitment the board has growing the game for women's cricket.”
