Fantastic session this morning at the Female Stingrays Academy

Fantastic session this morning at the Female Stingrays Academy


A group of girls 13-16 yo from areas ranging from Fulham to Victor Harbor spent 2 hours going through:

  • Catching Drills
  • Throwing Technique work
  • Decision Making Drill
  • Bowling technique analysis
  • Discussions about wrist position when bowling
  • Batting Drills on bat soeed, head position, foot position
  • Machine Gun Batting Drill
  • Importance of hitting the ball under your eyes
  • Finished with discussions about batting objectives, waiting for the ball, trigger movements

As a Coaching Philosophy I continually emphasise managing our Emotional Brain (Amygdala) and allowing our Decision Making Brain (Frontal Cortex) to be dominant. Combined with your body energy and force moving in the right direction in everything we do.

Next 2 sessions are down at Victor Harbor Recreation Centre to attract more Fleurieu based players, see post further down for days and times.

Contact Women's Head Coach John Lonergan at john@inclusiveitconsulting.com.au for more information.
