CRICKET AT FSA
OUR AIM & VISION
The aim of the Franklyn Stephenson Academy is to provide a properly equipped and affordable facility where anyone with a keen interest in the game of cricket can hone their skills and develop to their full potential. The vision is to create a lifelong passion for the game and prepare players not only to excel in cricket, but also in life and by extension help to mould individuals who will make valuable contributions to society.
BOWLING
The goal is consistency in action, line and length. Our coaches and facilities will provide an ideal foundation for sharpening these bowling skills.
Fast bowlers to spinners will benefit from focused training on their craft as we nurture strategy, stamina and technique.
“Cricket is full of narratives but the one that really matters is the battle royale of mind, between bowlers and batters.”
— Ashley Gray
BATTING
To enjoy all forms of cricket, the fundamentals of batting are coached at our facilities with emphasis on techniques, shot selection and basics like running between the wickets.
Batters need to stay focused to keep their wicket. FSA training programs include strength, hand-eye skills and fitness which prepares for long hours at the crease.
FIELDING
Half of all cricket matches are enjoyed out in the field, so we teach the techniques, teamwork and strategies to make fielding fun and functional.
As well as wicketkeeping, our young cricketers will learn the skills required to make a difference in the field and how it is as just as important as bat and ball.
TEAMWORK
Cricket is less fun without the camaraderie and friendships the game creates. Teamwork is also the way to get the most out of your game and the result!
All three disciplines in cricket require teamwork. We coach how to field as a team, bat in partnerships and bowl to a plan so the whole team contributes. Celebrating together is the biggest reward.
