Where abouts are you based? We had a coach last year who bowls leg-spin and played for Zim before retiring young with all the politics.

I don't know what stage you're at with your bowling already and I can't offer you a coach but as an obsessive leggie myself I can point you in a few directions. This book is the first port of call, its a treasure trove of information. You could also come and join all the other leg spin nutters over at:

Also those are my Richie Benaud videos posted above! Glad to see people are finding them useful :)

The Benaud videos are very useful :)
I've always had to teach myself to bowl leg spin
Nobody else at the club does or knows about it
