The Art of Wicket Keeping
Simon has loved “Keeping Wicket” since the age of 4 when his brother knocked out his 2 "Front teeth." From that day on he vowed to find out more about the ‘craft’ of wicket keeping. 41 years later he loves the game of cricket, and its traditions, and thankfully is still in possession of his remaining teeth.
Coaching for individuals who want to learn the art of wicket keeping or just want to improve their wicket keeping skills.
