How to use nets to become a better batsman

Everyone goes to nets in the hope of finding form and improving technique. But the way most people do it is totally ineffective.

But Gary Palmer takes things totally differently.

In this short video, Gary explains how he uses nets at his CCM Academy to make significant and noticeable differences to players technique, mental approach and run scoring ability.

In the video Gary talks about:
  • How new players feel experiencing the way nets are run
  • Progressions used to develop sound technique
  • How to net to avoid the common mistake of ‘falling over’
  • Why it’s important to be able to understand your own technique
  • Game planning scenarios in nets
  • What to do when you get mentally and physically tired

Hi there,

This is a good video, but what about those of us not blessed with such time and resources? Nets for most teams involves a 15 minute bat against old, soft balls in rickety old nets, with most bowlers bowling filthy, lazy off spin. How do I make the most of this situation?

There are many ways if you have the right attitude (which it sounds like you do). Do a search on here for "nets" or buy my preseason eBook.
