Win a personalised cricket coaching eBook from PitchVision Academy
UPDATE: The competition is now closed. Please do not enter.
As I'm sure you agree, it's about time we ran another giveaway.
You see, we have come up with an idea for a new service to add to the PitchVision Academy on-line courses section, but before we start charging we want people to try it out for nothing.
What is a personalised eBook?
Everyone who wins in this giveaway will be supplied with a cricket coaching eBook (that you can download, read on your PC or print out) that has been personalised to their needs.
So say you are a fast bowler. The bulk of your eBook will be about fast bowling techniques and tactics with some fielding and tail-end batting tips thrown in.
Say you are a fast bowler who is quick but lacks control. The book will contain advice on how to maintain your pace while improving your accuracy.
On the other hand, if you are a medium pacer well known for being low on pace but high on miserly spells, the book will show you how to add a yard without losing your core skill of putting the ball on the spot.
We are able to cover every cricket discipline (Even all-rounders):
- Opening batsmen
- Middle order stroke makers
- Tail-end sloggers
- All types of seam and swing bowling
- All types of spinner
- Wicketkeepers
- All fielding positions
- Captains
We can even do a personalised eBook for coaches. So you can put your name down even if you have hung up your boots.
OK, I'm convinced, how do I enter?
We are expecting a big response to this service, so you need to do a little bit of work to get your book.
- Your name.
- Your age.
- How long you have been playing cricket (and roughly how many games so far in your career).
- What type and level cricket you play most often (for example in the UK it may be club 2nd XI, 50 over declaration games and regional rep under 17s, 50 over limited over games).
- Your main disciplines and roles (for example, opening batsman or off spinner. If you have a specialist fielding position let us know and if you are captain also state it here).
- Any technical, tactical or mental issues you have been having.
It would also help if you could provide video of you batting, bowling or fielding. Although that is not essential (don't email the video if you have it, just tell us you can provide one).
If you are a coach, just tell us what level and age you coach, and what your coaching plans are.
The more detailed information you give, the more likely we are to choose you.
We will select the best entries and contact you via email to let you know you have won.
There are no age or ability restrictions on entry.
The competition closes at midday BST on Tuesday 25th May 2010 so be quick. Any emails received after that date won't be accepted.
Just so you know the legal bit, the competition is being run by miSport Ltd and the judge's decision is final.
