Hi Andrew,

Sorry but we only had a week so we wont be making it to SA or the West this time round (Guys from the US don't realise how big a country we are till they see it for themselves). Hopefully later in the year we can do this again, and our priority will be to visit places we didn't get to first time round.

This is the first time in a lot of years that Storm have been able to get down under, and their commitment to me is that they will keep coming on a regular basis.

These sessions can only add to the knowledge of our local bowlers, regardless of their ball of choice.

For anyone that can make a session I look forward to seeing you there.

Regards
James
