Two former Australian Test cricketers are set to share their skills with children in Echuca-Moama.

Shaun Brown Cricket Coaching has announced Graham Yallop and Ray Bright will lead a two-day clinic, to be held at Jack Eddy Oval, Moama, on Thursday and Friday, January 22 and 23, for kids aged 7 to 15.

The school holiday program includes video analysis, modified games, net sessions and written feedback, with Yallop and Bright heading a team of development coaches.

Top order batsman Yallop played 39 Tests and 30 one-day internationals for Australia between 1976 and 1984, including as captain in the 1978-79 Ashes.

He averaged 41.13 in Test matches, making eight centuries and nine half-centuries, as well as seven ODI half-centuries.

Left-arm orthodox bowler Bright played 25 Test matches between 1974 and 1986, taking 53 wickets.

Sessions run from 8.30am (for a 9am start) to 3pm each day.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity for juniors to develop their skills across T20, one-day, and Test formats, while enjoying the game in a professional environment,” clinic organiser Shaun Brown said.
