Run Making

This is a unique opportunity to learn from the current England batting coach, at an

interesting time in the game.

He will explain his approach to getting the best out of the country's top players, and

 the methods by which he restored the form of individual batsmen.

 He will discuss and demonstrate his approaches in coaching batsmen at all levels, from the

 Essex Academy to England's top players - and consider the different techniques, practice methods and

psychological processes in different forms of the game.

His success has attracted significant press coverage.

 Summing this up in the "Sunday Times" recently, he said, "I like to call myself a coach of run making rather than batting. A lot of people can bat, but not all of them can score runs. My coaching has changed.

 I try to coach shots that I would never have done when I started. As a coach, you try to hone

the skill of hitting the gaps."
