    Senior Bowling Machine Times

    Sunday 9th Dec (session 10 of 10) let me know if any problems.

    Let me know the time of the U15 game. It will be possible to swap the two senior sessions around but everyone needs to know otherwise it will get cramped.

    As we have finished the bowling machine pre booked time we need to think about what next. Trent Bridge Nets Booked- see below. Indoor league continues till February. Any more bowling machine? Now? or Before the season? Adam Charles has also offered to ask around. (Thanks Adam!)

    I have started a thread in the Forum (click here) for your suggestions

    A Guide to the NAACC Website

    I have had emails regarding difficulties with using the website. I hope this quick guide helps, email me any problems. [email protected]

    A guide to the NAACC Website

    The website is interactive in a few ways:

    1)      Anyone can post anything on the website anywhere. Just email me your items and I can post it on e.g. sell second hand cricket gear on the NAACC shop page.

    2)      If you click players you will see that many people have their picture and profile added to the relevant section. Just email me your details. Get the Juniors to write a little bit about themselves, how they feel about the club- anything!

    3)      I will update the poll in the homepage regularly, feel free to vote anytime. Try not to vote more than once for the same poll because it spoils the numbers.

    Video Analysis of Your Bowling Action

    Video Analysis of Your Bowling Action
    with Feedback and Action Plan
    Only TEN Places Available (Juniors and Seniors)
    Southglade. January 2008. £30

    Many Thanks to John Leaf (Notts UKCC3 Coach) for feedback over the weekend. 
    Lots of you found this VERY useful.

    John has offered ten nominated bowlers from NAACC Video Analysis of your bowling action. This will be a 2 hour session. John will video your bowling action from different angles, copy it to the laptop and then analyse it using software e.g. drawing lines etc. You will then get 1on1 feedback. Bowlers will receive still images of key points by email (only sent to parents if U18). A DVD of the whole recording will be sent to NAACC.

    Not all verbal 1on1 feedback is remembered. For an additional cost John will prepare written feedback i.e. a Word document which highlights strengths and areas for development plus an Action Plan or suggestions on how to achieve progress. This takes one hour per bowler (hence the additional charge), so you will not receive this on the day

    I have started a thread in the forum. If you are interested please put your name down by clicking reply. Do not post contact details. You will then be selected. We will contact the Ten selected bowlers with further information.
