General questions on youth cricket
Didn't know where to ask this and this title seemed vague enough and no-one seems to be commenting here anyway. So.... The question.
Relates to UK club cricket; At what age/point in kids cricket do they start to sort the bowlers from the batsman. One of my lads is on the verge of moving up to the U13's and I was just wondering if in that age group they continue to give everyone a bowl even though some of them 2 years or more in, are still chucking the ball and or couldn't hit a barn door from a 5 metres?
Another question while we're here, do they carry on with the 'Terrier cricket' format or do they move to the "Once you're out that's it" approach?
