Coaching clinic sets the scene for our juniors

COACHING CLINIC SETS

THE SCENE FOR OUR

JUNIORS

Moonee Valley juniors got a taste of the future when senior players ran a training clinic at Ormond Park on September 10.
Coach Lou Raffaele and a group of senior players took our up-and-comers through their paces, checking and advising on their techniques and giving our young Valley boys some handy instruction on how to continue improving their game.

The seniors are taking a bigger role with the juniors this season, assisting our Director of Junior Cricket, senior player Channa DeSilva.
Anthony Cafari and Stephen Esmore - who both came through our junior program - are taking on the coaching of Moonee Valley's Under 12s this season.
And our two young English imports, James Wolfenden and Sean Duckworth, have put up their hands to coach our Under 10s.
All in all, the juniors will benefit from the increased senior interaction.

Junior Co-ordinator Peter Pickering advises that there are still spots available in each of our age groups - Under 14s, Under 12s and Under 10s, as well as in our Milo In2Cricket program for the younger players wanting to get in to cricket for the first time.
