I think as sponsor you should lobby to have hitting the roof rewarded rather than penalised!

Just play indoor to keep eye in and then will start around March.  Sometimes it does more harm than good. Nets have it coming on to you quick and even bounce..................outdoor in April Pudding!!!!

I haven't stopped!
Had a poor season with the bat, didn't net as much during the season that I normally would do.
Doing everything I can to be a better bat.
Indoor league has treated me well 3x retirements (ret. @ 25)
Bowling not so good!

Been netting with a mate and start some coaching on Thursday.

I'm joining a new club and my first net is on the 29th January.  I'm very excited and nervous to be honest.  Haven't touched a bat in anger, other than some indoor stuff, since September.

we all look bad at Headingley netting. Lightening fast surface with bounce makes it look like Perth rather than Yorkshire. Some of the net sessions are pretty lively when a couple of decent bowlers rock up. It's not a batsmans game, more like a shooting gallery lol
