Winter Net Practice

I’ve been looking around at places to practice and trying to ascertain where other people practice and what kind of fees you would expect to pay. Someone suggested schools, so I’ve located these in the Thurrock area, not had a lot of luck with Castle Point and Southend area though. But while looking around I came across this from the Westcliff cricket club website – it’s our ground, which we seem to be having trouble accessing, have a look it looks impressive.

Description

The Sports Hall offers first-class facilities for, among other things, basketball, badminton, volleyball and gymnastics. Its specially constructed floor also offers a good surface for cricket, and this, together with the provision of appropriate netting and two bowling machines, means that the School can offer outstanding indoor practice facilities to aspiring young cricketers.
