What is 'Wicket Ball'?
This is a Cricket warm up game that has been adapted and made into an event. The game is based around fielding and does not involve batting or bowling. Skills involved are throwing (over and underarm), catching, rolling and stopping. All further rules will be explained during a demonstration.

**NO EXPERIENCE OF CRICKET REQUIRED JUST BASIC FIELDING SKILLS**.
