Foster explained that the selected players would be part of the 2010 Berbice Cricket Board Academy in late July and would also be exposed to modern training techniques under an Elite Junior Coaching Programme that would be launched after the Academy.
The Clinic would be held at the Albion Community Centre Ground and the Board has invited several experienced professionals to lecture the youngsters on a series of topics relating to captaincy.
Among the topics are: what is leadership, responsibility of a Captain, conduct of a Captain, field placement, umpire signals, public speaking, importance of personal discipline and relationship with players and officials.
