| Cricket tips for the youngsters at Royal Selangor Club Posted: 14 Nov 2012 06:03 AM PST YOUNG children will have a chance to learn basic cricket skills at the Royal Selangor Club (RSC) in Bukit Kiara over the year-end school holiday. For the upcoming four-week programme, starting from Nov 19, RSC cricket section programme co-ordinator R. Devindran said they were embarking on a junior development initiative to introduce the game to boys and girls aged between eight and 15. "It is the first time we are offering a programme of this nature to cater to the children during the school holidays. Our aim is to encourage the newcomers to discover the game. "It is going to be a fun-filled experience to engage in a healthy outdoor activity under controlled circumstances in a safe environment. The children will also get to meet new friends," he added. Two coaches — Hiran Wiranga and Dinesh Muthuraman — will be including the fundamental aspects of the game to guide trainees through the paces three times a week. Considering that wet weather may disrupt the training, they have also drawn up indoor activities for the children. The three-hour sessions are scheduled on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9.30am onwards. Registration fee is RM450 for each participant. Besides providing the playing equipment, RSC is giving a T-shirt and cap to each participant. Although they are expecting a small group of 20 participants including children of non-club members to join the introduction training sessions, they can accommodate up to 30 trainees in the group. "We want to create a broader base of children playing the game. We are also excited about identifying new talents. "Outstanding trainees showing potential in the camp will get to continue and take up cricket more seriously, joining their peers in the club's ongoing training programme," said Devindran, who is also the Kuala Lumpur Cricket Association secretary. Currently, 50 juniors train twice a week under the club's programme. This year, six of the up-and-coming cricketers from the club featured for the national Under-16 side. The RSC Under-12 line-up also completed their campaign as the runners-up of their age-group in this season's Kuala Lumpur league. For more information, call 014-365 9407 (Hiran), 012-237 5500 (Dinesh) or 019-241 1471 (Devindran). |
